Tucson AZ Real Estate Says Goodbye to 2007
We bid the year 2007 goodbye. It was a good year despite what the media has done to make Real Estate the Domestic whipping boy for the year.

But we will be here to help interpret and provide a guide to what the data actually says and the medias masterful representation of the facts to help sell newspapers and spread a Grinch like atmosphere across the country.

Tucson AZ Real Estate and the Lesson of the Hummingbird
Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get. Sometimes what we get is better than what we wanted. I got a new Nikon D300 camera two weeks ago right after they came out. Since then I read a few pages of the manual find out more about the camera and go in search of test subjects.

Tucson Rain A Mini Monsoon in December
I take a lot of pictures of clouds. During the Tucson Monsoons season I get some really good images. The Big white rolling high thunderhead kind of clouds. I have a friend that said to me this summer, “You don’t see clouds very often do you?” That is true.
