Nice recap of our precious area David - and speaking of precious your little ones sure are! Don't you just love all the accolades that get dumped on us? #1 Reason to move to the Triangle - the people!
Hi David - GREAT reasons for moving to the area!
Just a SEO tip for you.....if you set up links to those articles you mentioned, it gives you more "Google juice" and will keep people on your site longer....especially if you specify to open up the link in a new window.
Just thought I'd share that tidbit as it took me months to figure out. :)
Not too shabby at all!
And those are just a small part of the many reasons I love calling the Triangle area home!
Well done my friend!
David, Great job of localism. How much do you pay your "models"? They should be getting the big bucks!
:-)
Thanks Lee and Pamela, I wondered about using them! Brokers in training.

Craig, could BBQ be another?
