Wow, sometimes I really love this job!

I had a great signing this evening. It was with a couple who have a farm of several square miles sitting on a ridge overlooking the Northern Pacific Coast of California. The people were nice the signing went smoothly, the Great Pyranees that greeted me at the door were charming as were the King Charles Spaniels which were the house dogs (Same set up as in the Versailles palace at the peak of the French monarchy) even the Great Pyranees were named Charles and Louis. The farm has a herd of goats which produces some of the nicest French-style cheese in a very modern, pristine dairy (the loan was to expand the dairy). Fresh air, great cheese, beautiful organic vegetibles, nice wine, fun conversation, it just doesn't get much better than that. TTFN

Man, that was just one the best that's ever happened. Those Great Pyranees are actually used to guard the goats and the couple breeds and raises registered Great Pyranees. I've always loved those great big furry animals and they are so intelligent and friendly (once they know you're ok). Believe me I love dogs but not all my stories are that great. The other day a very young Boston Terrier puppy got all excited at my arrival and lost control of its bladder on my freshly dry-cleaned trousers. All the owner could say was "Oh my she just gets so excited" naw, really! Ya think maybe! So some days are great and some are a little less so. The dogs are always good its the people that don't always do them justice.

Life is so good, no doubt! Glad you got such a nice healthy portion of it in a signing that reminds us "how good it is"!

Like most things life is life and it just chugs along but it is really nice when something great happens. I've always believed that if you don't know what bad is how will you ever know when it's really good. I was an extremely busy EOM in both SA work and realestate sales. But that's good, winter is coming and then I can relax.
