Clark County Real Estate: Friday Fun in the Sand

OK, no one can be all work and no play, especially on a Friday. So to the rescue we come…

Been a long week, but still have some work to do on the ‘puter and looking for a numbing way to spend a few minutes?

Kids want on the computer, but you’d rather have them do something more “creative”?

Well, have your cake and eat it too…  www.thisissand.com is a blast. Mindless fun and creative adventure to boot.

Check out these creative masterpieces by the Canton Crew.

Enjoy your weekend, there’s plenty of work stuff to get to soon enough.

Clark County, Olympic Ties and How to Actually See Them

Yes, we all know that the Olympics are starting today.  Not like that’s a breaking news story. And here in Clark County, we even have some of our own participating.

But since all the action is happening half-way across the world, unless you keep (my kind of) night-owl hours, you will miss most of the fun.  Of course, NBC seemingly owns has broadcast rights to the Olympics, and you can see lots of programming there… but what if you tire of their announcers or angle?  You are out of luck, right?

Not necessarily.

Thanks to the wonder that is Internet technology, there are now loads of other ways to watch the Olympics. Here is a list of websites that offer various Olympic coverage.

Enjoy, be sure to cheer on our local and native Clark County participants, and look forward to Vancouver hosting our own Winter Olympics two short years from now.

Oh, wait, that’s the OTHER Vancouver.  (I was wondering how they were going to do the Giant Slalom on St. Helens…)

Back in the Saddle…

As I mentioned in my last post, I had tons of ideas that had to be left on the back-burner while I dealt with more pressing matters. Now, with a couple of days back in the saddle, I can point to the release of a couple of minor updated features to the blog.

As you notice, there are a couple of new links on the side bar.  One links to the new Clark County PhotoBlog, an idea I had last fall that I could just never find time to implement. It is still in the so-underdevelopment stage, but I have a boatload of images to tag and post.  The other links to the new Clark County Neighborhoods Blog.   Also resurrected from the “idea” files from days gone past, the ‘Hood blog will be about things really, really local (the buzzword, if you’re so inclined, is “hyper-local”).

With both blogs we will really be looking for contributions from our readers.  Especially the neighborhoods blog, as news, notes and activities in and around Clark County are sometimes best presented by those close to the action.

There are about 174 175 176 other ideas I am determined that I will eventually get to.  So, if nothing else, it should be entertaining to watch the trial and error process of my endeavors here.  And just think, all without an admission charge.

As far as our main blog, it will still be about house, home and real estate in and around Clark County, plus many of my aimless meanderings into other topics.  But these new sites will allow for an additional fun and focus about what makes Clark County a special place to be.

Thanks for allowing me to take you there.
