Spring Break Condo?

Spring Break Condos from Dave Garland
Spring break isn't far off. Have your plans yet? I have one of two condos in Florida to choose from. We are going to rent only 1, but for the same price ($1000).
Check out the websites attached to see the amenities at each condo.
The Villas at Regal Palms is just outside of the Orlando area. It has 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and sleeps 10. Check it out at the website below. This one is available Friday, March 30-Friday, April 6.

KEA Self Sell Service

Hey Staff,
Do you have something you or your family has to sell? Carolyn Schaner is a photographer that has some stunning nature pictures to sell at www.absoluteclarityphotography.com. She is the daughter of Chas Schaner, 7th grade teacher at Pinewood. Her website has been added to a new spot on the blog called KEA Self Sell Service. Now that is a goofy name, and may need to be changed, but if you would like your services added to the list, send Chas an email with the URL and it can be done! Shop online with Kentwood staff members and it's a win-win!

ARE THERE ANY DOUBTS? What will you do?

If they can take away your bargaining rights, why would they not want to take away your livelihood so that a corporation can make a profit in the name of "lower cost". Your neighbor the bus driver, your neighbor the custodian, your neighbor the food service worker have taken the hits. Who is next? What action will you take?
