On my flight back home... Out of five days in the Bay Area, four were long days of shopping. I took that personal time Sunday evening to visit the Golden Gate Bridge.... I have five reports to write tomorrow and then I get to rest... I did 29 shops, which included 22 apartments, 2 new homes, 2 airline flights and three gyms... I drove about 1000 miles in my rental. Needless to say, I am now familiar with all the freeways from within about 100 miles of San Francisco.
My trip did get off to a rather dubious start.... Literally one hour after getting off my plane, I found myself calling 911.... I had been in my rental care for five minutes when a guy started running after a woman who was attempting to drive away in traffic. He through his body at her car and sat on her hood, preventing her from driving. He was irate and spewing all sorts of colorful language at her. While I was on the phone wtih the 911 operator, he threw his body at her windshield so hard he smashed it. ... She ended up driving off when he got off the hood once and getting away. I looked up the neighborhood at lunch that day and learned that "Fruitvale" is a neighborhood with some issues.....
It was a great trip... I'm exhausted, but made a good profit while helping a couple of MSC's get some shops done that they were desperate to have completed. (Yes, these MSC's recognize that money talks did not expect me to shop for them for several days and only break even.)
Hard work builds character and homework is good for your soul.
