Killearn Lakes Deer

Killearn Lakes is Tallahassee’s most Northern Subdivision. It looks 

like houses were sprinkled in the woods. The many green spaces and
wooded conservation easements support a lot of wildlife. Deer are
everywhere.. this one was by the side of the main road. We stopped for
photo and she gave us a once over and then went back to eating.

      Rewarding Bad Behavior and Putting Tax Payers at risk?

      The WSJ had a good article describing the options open to the Obama 

      Administration to speed up the housing recovery. From my read, all the
      options are rewarding bad behavior or putting more of the tax payers
      money at risk. We need to deal evenly with everyone rather than just
      bail out bad or underwater borrowers. Any attempt to prop up folks at
      the bottom is unfair to the people who have made their mortgage
      payments and stayed in their homes.

      I keep wondering what we could do that will help but is FAIR: Why not
      reset everyone’s mortgage at a 4% fixed rate? Can you think of another
      creative fix?

      Here is a link to the article:
