The indicators: web traffic, up! Houses sold in comparison to last year, up! Spring Break, up (as in over)! Inventory, up! The economy, um, well...up(ish)! As far as we can tell, the flood gates are bowed in the middle and about to burst open unleashing a torrent of buying and selling the likes we haven't witnessed around Lake Keowee in quite a few years, maybe. The deals are there, the buyers are there, we've just got to put more of them together and with weather like this it's bound to happen!
Azaleas, one of the landmarks of the big golf tournament being held in nearby Augusta, Georgia this week, are a funny bit of foliage. For about 11 months and 2 weeks out of the year, they're a nondescript green leafy lumpy bush. But in early spring, they bloom with a myriad of bright pastel flowers that makes the wait more than worth it. This year's hilariously early spring, coupled with the almost nonexistent winter, has brought out the azaleas almost too soon, at least as far as The Masters and possibly the Pickens County Azalea Festival (April 21st) are concerned. Maybe they can just take a few polaroids.
A relatively unknown Beatle anecdote talks about the extreme differences in the personalities of the super-group's two primary song writers' John and Paul. John was a "take running jump into the deep end of the pool" type of guy while Paul would circle the pool a couple of times to discern the best possible location to ease his way into the water making as few ripples as possible. This was brought to mind when I finally relented to taking my kids to the lake for the first swim of the season. My kids are "Johns".
The weather is crazy, the foliage is insane, the basketball is (fill in synonym for "mad" here)...March on Lake Keowee is awesome! The temperatures are in the 80's at the moment but be mindful - the last few ice storms we've had were during March so don't go storing away that winter jacket for at least 72 hours (confused? You can call me for a flow chart). Just don't think to hard about it, you'll go crazy, and start carrying your "THE END OF THE WORLD IS NIGH!" sign and digging a fallout shelter. Save your energy, recycle and start taking advantage of
...or the Good News! The Fed (whoever that really is) in their most recent and punctiliously worded statement, offered "labor market conditions have improved further; the unemployment rate declined notably in recent months but remains elevated." Stock purchases soared and buyers bought the likes we haven't seen throughout both markets in years!

Since the blooms are starting to show themselves another 2 weeks earlier than last year when the blooms started to show themselves 2 weeks earlier than the previous year, I think we can go ahead and declare the entire winter season a thing of the past. Next year we'll have fall (including the secondary religiosity of college football) and bound directly into spring skipping the frigidness of winter altogether. Maybe skip the NBA season? One can dream can't one?
So Greece is saved from financial meltdown...again. Just like last week when the powers that be saved them from, uh, financial meltdown...again, and with the Greeks, the world. I think it's good news, better at least than what's coming out of Iran and Syria for the moment. And it's keeping our minds off of $4/gallon gas prices. Not sure where I'm heading with this, just venting I guess. Where does all the money go? The Bilderbergers? The Skull and Bones'? The Tooth Fairy's 401k? Beyond the sun? As Nigel Tufnel once said, "Maybe it's best left unsolved." Ok, I'll wait here while you go Google Nigel Tufnel.

Even though this is the South and not the west, we feel justified in stealing that phrase and comfortable that the good 'ol boys from 'round these parts would have our back should some "cowboys" get their knickers in a knot...maybe that's just the Southern Pride (or moon shine) talking but it's time to "cowboy up" your Lake Keowee Real Estate just the same.
