music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Lake Placid, New York in the Adirondacks

Lke Placid was the staging location for our antique Bentely Drivers Club.  We drove all around the area, and I particularly liked Lake George.

  If you are looking for a vacation spot, we stayed at the Crowne Plaza, right down town, in Lake Placid..  From there you can take day trips to the other lakes, including Lake Champlain.  It is beautiful country.  Lake Placid was the site of the Oympics and has summer ski jump, skating arena, and more....The trip is about 5 hours out the Mass Pike and up route 87, to 73 to 86, right into the center of town the Crowne Plaza is up a steep hill on the left.

E-book $10.00 loaded with music of the 50's

Order on your Kindle, and travel back to the 50's, in this story !  The music of the time brings alive the scenes, as Meggie recalls her past, and meets with her friends who tell her their stories.

Amy Winehouse - You Know I'm No Good

you have to own this!  I pray that she makes it off drugs, what a bright future, if she can keep herself alive!

RITCHIE VALENS-COME ON LETS GO

Follow me and you will find the greatest music of last 50 years! I hope you agree

My goal is to keep alive the music that sent us crazy, and made us want to dance.  You need to start a collection, because at some point in time, the production will stop and they will be lost to the future!

Barry White - Can't Get Enough Of Your Love Baby.

This is a must in any collection of the greatest years in music.  Barry White!!!! 

Gladys Knight - Midnight Train To Georgia

You have to own this album, it has great music...and the grands will love it too!  Introduce them to the great music we had!

Most fabulous housing opportunity in a generation

CREATE THE FUTURE WITH FAFARD REAL ESTATE,
 COME SEE OUR HOMES UNDER CONSTRUCTION,
 CHECK THE PRICES, MORTGAGE RATES, AND EVALUATE YOUR FUTURE!

Here are some things to consider. Young new buyers, especially

MEET THE SUBURBS...LEARN THE ROADS, LEARN THE VALUE OF MOVING WEST, AS THE PILGRIMS DID!  THE BURBS ARE GROWING, AND YOU WILL BE MAKING THEM WHAT THEY WILL BE!  Join us in creating the future, come see the new construction on Silver Lake Road,Bellingham our Gloria Jean is fantastic, as is our Garden Party, all new homes coming soon!  Come see our Garden Party under construction in Uxbridge, the Super Coach in Ashland, the Galleria in Hopkinton, the Sovereign in Marlboro, and two fabulous homes going up in Natick in our million dollar neighborhood, near the hospital.  Don't lose the most fabulous opportunity to buy right in a generation!


The dollar has devalued about 30% , how can your recoup that loss?  The bank interest will not do it, and gold is too high, but maybe dropping in value now too!  Why not buy something you can use?

Paying rent?  Will you ever recover the expenditure, and will your dollars bring back the investment you make in rent?  Doubt it!

$200,000 for  new home in Uxbridge , Mass.  20 mintues to (T) and Rt 140 Franklin, 1/2 way between major routes, 395 and 495....located just off major route 146...and only 30 minutes to Framingham.
Cut through Upton over to 495 Hopkinton, EMC, and Mass Pike connection...lots of secret roads...

Save thousands, maybe more than you will spend on gas,  over 5 years?.  Did you know that most people sell their homes in the first 5 years, and move up?  We have sold 3-4 homes to repeat people over the past years, they started in Ashland with a condo 40 years ago for $39,990, for example and moved to one of our new houses for $59,990  and then to another new house for $79,900 etc., increasing their investment while selling their previous home for more money!  Homes puchased in the $50,000 price range are now in the high $300.000 price range.  Traditionally, real estate increases in value, through the years, as the population expands, and grows into the suburbs.   iNVESTING IN SOMETHING YOU CAN LIVE IN, is worth considering!

INTEREST RATES, COULD BE STARTING TO GO  UP IN THE NEXT MONTH!
Imagine, buying your home home for $200,000!   It might work out less than rent, depending on your downpayment.  Mortgages rates are still under 5%, what a deal, and you may only have a month before interest rates  start up again.  Once housing activity shows health, the mortgage rates will rise, they have to!

Sell for less and still make money?  Talk to Howard or Tim 508-881-6662
I have known some very clever folks, who sold their house for less than they wanted in this market, so they could get a great deal on a new house.  Yes, they took less than they wanted, but they still made money and invested in the future, by getting a new house.  Look at your home and see if you are willing to take a risk, sell for less, and get your dream home now, while rates are low and new home prices are still low enough.
Buy new, avoid the big replacement bills of aging homes, and neighborhoods!

Retired?  Want to share expenses with the children yet, keep your privacy, talk to Tim at 508-881-6662, Sunday thru Thursday
