Have a Happy and Safe Halloween!

Just thought I'd share a little Happy Halloween card that I'm re-purposing from a title rep!  Hehe.  Tried to find some orange stuff on my desk... ended up finding a gorgeous sparkle pen from PenGems.com (got it on clearance for 2 pens for $12.98!) and a Sharpie Gel highlighter and some white-out!  



And I found great tips for a Safe Halloween from the CDC!  Kids, candy, dark spooky streets and homes, can be a fun Halloween experience, or it can turn dangerous quickly.  Read the tips below to keep everyone safe tonight!

Beaumont, Banning, Cherry Valley, CA - A Few Favorite Pics and Why I Love This Area So Much!

I'm looking forward to sharing some pictures and thoughts with everyone about the area that I work in!  My office is located right in the middle of the City of Beaumont and the City of Banning.  Cherry Valley is just north of Beaumont.  

The lifestyle in these Riverside County cities is different from your typical Southern California LA or Orange County suburb.  Things move at a slower pace.  There are no parking meters.  The open spaces and mountain views are probably the first things people notice!


Above is a view of one of the Fire Stations across from my office.   There is a mix of evergreens and palm trees.  The skies are nearly always clear and blue.  There is usually a breeze, sometimes it blows strongly.  The mountains aren't so impressive in this photo, but when it snows, it is a wondrous sight to behold!


And of course, if you love horses, it is so easy to find beautiful horse property in the area.  It's not uncommon to see people riding their horses around along the roads!

I plan on taking more pictures and sharing my favorite scenes and pics with everyone.  Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
