One thing I’ve now learned about blogging: No matter how much energy and effort Kimberly and I put into writing lengthy, in-depth, time consuming “on-topic” real estate articles, it’s the 20 seconds I took to write the smarta**ed “St. Louis Celebrity Dirt” post last month on Ray “Mr. Nahndee-nahn, Nahndee-nahn” Vinson that has people coming back to the website. That and the title, "Hey, Your Basement Smells Like Urine!"

Go figure.

So to pander to those who like smacking around the local news, I encourage you to go read the story in the Post titled, "Shutting down" by Jack Naudi (04/22/2005). You can find the article on-line at www.stltoday.com.

The spring home selling season is definitely upon us. We have several new home and condo listings about to come on the market.

Today, we picked up a new listing for sale at 7127 Glades Avenue. Since I've been working on the direct mail marketing piece for it for the past hour or so, I guess I’ll make it the topic of today’s blog.

If you are wondering why there hasn't been a blog in two weeks, Kimberly and I got married on April 9th and the week of the wedding was a long and brutal week for the two of us.

Well, it’s Sunday. Part III of the NCAA Tournament Visitor’s Guide to St. Louis. I figure half of you are now setting in your hotel room pouting, waiting for the next miniaturized American Airlines plane to give you the 18 inches of seat space back to your riot strewn college town. But for those of you who still feel like exploring, and for those of you who didn’t trek up to Champaign for the day, here’s some things to do.

By now you're probably sick of the crowds around the dome and are looking for someplace to run off and get those souvenirs that proved you were actually here. So let’s talk about St. Louis shopping for a minute.

With the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament in town this weekend, I thought I would give my take on things to do and see in St. Louis for all the visitors out there setting in their hotel room reading local blogs looking for ideas on things to do and see. (Hey, everyone is doing it…)
