Ponderings in the fog

Sitting here looking at the fog drifting in can’t help but leave me with a feeling of gloom. Nothing specific, but GLOOM never the less. Gloom is one of those things that is brought on with a lack of something positive on ones mind, e.g., Where should I have dinner tonight?; Is there another decent 4-plex available in Hermosa Beach?; What am I doing in real estate?

I was scanning through a friends blogs on her blog site...spectacular! What a lot of time invested. The Daily Breeze would do well to recruit her talents. Some positive media input would would bring balance to our special beach cities locale in spite of what real estate pundits and writers describe with negative certainty and forcasts of gloom.

The press leaves me depressed. Could be the overcast as well I suppose.

On the bright side, here’s what’s been happening in Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach:

Am I wrong, or does this suggest a pretty active market?
