Because of what I do for a living, I'm often asked what are my favorite neighborhoods here in Redding CA. That's a tough one! I say that because there's not "a" favorite, I have several that I really like.

Looking towards West Redding, I really like Mary Lake, it's an older, well established neighborhood of older and newer homes but very clean and well maintaned. Lots of character in this community.

This great nation of ours has so many Main Streets. Lots of towns, medium, small, and smaller, offer a quaint persona and an innocence connected to a time most tend to forget about. I can remember when a place like Grapevine, Texas was a small town between other small towns. That was back in the early 1970s.

That's when I decided to take the plunge into the City-Data.com pool. The date: August 4, 2007. Ironically, it was a Saturday. Hey, just like it will...

The continuing adventure of Texas' newest interstate goes full force in their quest to get the national route closer to reality. We had Corpus Christi last December with the Lone Star State's first stretch. Now, we have a new player in the expansion of the transcontinental Interstate 69.

Houston, you are next, my Bayou City friends. As a matter of fact, you've technically already arrived. You are the recipient of a brand-new, 35-mile-long segment of I-69,...
