Brilliant Sunset Sky

This is why I love living and selling Fairhope, Alabama.  Night before last, our sky was brilliant from the setting sun. The above pictures shows the beginning to the end. Each night is different, but this night was special. Our little town of Fairhope is getting ready for downtown trick and treat. This will be Saturday from 10-2. Please stop by our downtown Ashurst and Niemeyer office.

Henry Ford once said “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.”

How this saying fits with real estate but also in all walks of life. This past Friday was of course the first Friday of the month but in FAIRHOPE it is “Art Walk”. Ashurst and Niemeyer’s downtown office on Section was open to our many clients as well as public. Music was provided by Jeff Farrow, who was incredible. Thank you for all that dropped by. This night was a tremendous success.

If you have not attended Art Walk, please put it on your calendar. You can start at the Art Center and stroll throughout the town. Be sure to make reservations for dinner to top off your evening. Fairhope is a truly wonderful place to live.

Cotton Fields back home….

“When I was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home”….

What a beautiful site to see, as I drove around Baldwin County yesterday.

I thought I would share a few of the pictures I took

It’s a job keeping Fairhope beautiful

I have always wondered how plants are planted in Fairhope, AL. This photo shows the story. One of the employees using this wonderful tool that is called an auger digging the holes for all the beautiful plants and another follows along dropping them in.  These plants are all grown in the city nursery, and changed 4-6 times per year to keep up with the seasonal changes.  They do such a fantastic job keeping our city beautiful.

Planting Fairhope

Selling this life style is so easy

Driving to work today, I thought about how blessed I have been to be in real estate in Fairhope, AL. Selling this life style is so easy. Oak trees cascade over Scenic 98/Main Street. Our sunsets are at our finger tips whether you live on the bay or just walk out on our magical pier at the foot of Fairhope Avenue. We all love to gather by sitting on park benches or walk the length of the pier. Fairhope is like a little village with beautiful homes within a short distance to downtown. This is a great place to live and again being in real estate. I feel that I am the perfect voice for this community. Look at our Sunsets, enjoy.
