Small Town Signal Mountain
One of the things that I like about growing up and still living on Signal Mountain is the small town feel of it. With that comes a sense of freedom and security. Driving down the highway today I saw several packs of kids leaving the town hall gym and headed to Pruett’s for lunch on their bikes. The bigger kids in the front and the back but no adult to be seen. In the summer these groups are all up and down the highway coming and going to the pool and the different lunch spots on Signal. When i was a kid we did the same thing. It was usually heading to the Hardees or the McDonalds. Neither of those exist today so it it usually Pruett’s , 517 Subs and Mexican that they head for.

Christmas Window Contest
Every year the Signal Mountian Office of Real Estate Partners hosts a Signal Mountain wide Christmas window decorating contest. We have to set the example so we do our windows at the office as well. If you are ever on Signal this time of the year and are looking for us we are behind the Abominable Snowman usually. This is always a fun and friendly competition and it is fun to see the different companies compete and to watch everyone drive through the mountain to vote on the best window.
Bridgestone and Lamborghini on Signal Mountian
A few months ago we got a call from a production company to use a clubhouse that we have as a staging area for a national Bridgestone Tire commercial. The road part of the commercial was shot on Roberts Mill Road on Signal Mountain. The commercial is below and the Roberts Mill parts are very quick. There was not a lot of notice given to the residence that the road would be closed so some were upset but at the same time if was cool to watch them at work. Signal Mountain is a sleepy little town for the most part so not sure how the scouts found this hidden road but good for them.

Emotions of moving 20 Years Of Memories & How we are doing it
Moving is emotional. Add raising your children in the same home for 20 years, and the emotions ramp way up. The memories, the lessons, the comfort of familiarity, and the sheer accumulation of stuff is simply harder to move. Writing about this helps me process some of it, so follow along as I share, which may be a bit unconventional, and certainly personal.
