Additionally, there was no TV and no negative media influence.  Life really does go on without listening to all the drivel.  I highly recommend it if you need to recapture your energy (or “edge”).

The time away from the Triangle also provided a wonderful reminder of what a dynamic, and prosperous area we live in (RDU, NC).  We passed through a number of communities on our trip that have been hit very hard by the economic downturn and probably won’t bounce back like the Triangle does as the economy heals.   No matter what your current situation, if you are reading this from the Triangle or considering a re-location to our area, I can’t emphasize how fortunate we are!  We need to strive to remain positive and focus on ways we can enhance our community(s).

Oh, and if you were curious about market “happenings”, the Triangle region continues to see further signs of recovery as major corporations announce the addition of employees (Caterpillar adding 325 jobs in Sanford);  others look to expand their presence here (Becton Dickinson building an approximately 720,000 square foot distribution facility in Johnson County);  and yet other (unnamed) businesses  are looking to move from leased space in to permanent quarters that they acquire (while interest rates remain at historic lows).

Please let us know if we can help you and in the meantime…………….stay positive!
