Fox Valley and Geneva in particular are blessed to have the Parcell family showing an incredible display of Christmas lights this year. www.twasthenightbefore.com/index.shtml is a great website that tells of the meaning of Christmas and why they do the displays. Quite a parallel to the meaning that is displayed in the Charlie Brown Christmas Special. Give the feedback. Go and visit 813 Cheever Avenue in Geneva this season. There is corresponding music to go with the broadcast of the light special. This promises to be a grand experience for all ages. We're taking our family later this week. Enjoy this experience. It'll be fun.... 12/14/2008

So I've been working in the Geneva, Illinois area for over 13 years now.  Day in and day out I'm out and about the town visiting listings and doing the normal business one would expect in this industry.  I've met all kinds of people and shared all sorts of experiences... The other day I'm sitting at my desk working (okay, I was probably tooling around in the rain) when the receptionist at the front desk calls.  "There's someone here to see you named George, he says he's your cousin."  Ya, right - I think.  I don't have any cousin named George.  What lengths will salespeople go to get in front of you..? I hesitate but make my way up front and am struck by this fellow who bares a striking resemblance to my grandfather on my mothers side.  He introduces himself, and the younger man accompa... 12/05/2008

Can't wait to coach my first football game tomorrow!  I have a 7 year old and a 9 year old both in two different sessions of the same league.  We have a more popular "Tri-City Football" that's been around from when I was a kid.  The reality is that I loved football, but hated Tri-city football.  They had practice every day of the week or 4 out of 5 days a week.  Too much for kids that age.  Saint Charles, Geneva and Batavia all participate in Tri-City programs, but I dont' want them to experience what I've experienced.  I have a lot of dads say that the coaches and the program is "way too intense" and they've pulled their boys out despite the $500+ fee.  Many just didn't sign up again.  I want my kids to play football....BUT I WANT THEM TO PLAY FOOTBALL ONLY IF THEY WANT TO.  I'm not a ... 09/12/2008

Geneva, IL is such a special place this time of year. All of the little white lights on Third St. make it look so festive. The Christmas Walk was last weekend which always a great crowd. The Geneva Chamber of Commerce does a fantastic job of coordinating these neat events and is wonderful for all the merchants. Now, as to why I'm excited....I'm getting a few hints the Real Estate market is perhaps starting to bottom out. I was listening to a couple of economic pundits the other morning and for the first time they were fairly optimistic that the market was going to start moving up. They were not saying we were going back to 2005 but begin returning to a normal market. Of course, as usual, there were some on the panel who did not agree to be fair. As a Realtor in Geneva IL who absorbs all... 12/10/2007
