Crepe myrtles are blooming

My first fifty

... dollar fill up was yesterday. And real estate agents tend to drive a lot so I'm not expecting it to get any better at the pump this summer as I drive clients around the Charleston area looking at homes for sale. On a positive note, higher gasoline

George Clooney to star as

... Charleston real estate agent Howard Arnoff in a new movie scheduled to begin filming today. Meg Ryan will play Howard's wife Polly. Good looking guy. They resemble each other so closely they could be twins. Could today be April Fools Day? Nah
