I was out chatting with Jose Carrillo the other evening while his crew was working on my lawn and landscaping. I realized that he has been handling the care of my lawn and yard for 14 years! It’s hard to believe some times. Jose is a rarity in today’s world of service providers. He provides first-rate service and always over-delivers on the work completed. Need a great lawn care company? Call Jose Carrillo at 214-566-8597!
Gina and I had the pleasure of watching the Allen Wranglers beat Nebraska from a suite in the Allen Events Center. Many thanks to Joe Boggs with Integrity First Home Loans for the invitation and hospitaility! The Allen Events Center is located in the southeast corner of Stacey Road and US 75. It seats 6200 people and is home to the Allen Wranglers Football Team and the Allen Americans Ice Hockey Team. The venue has also hosted rodeos and concerts.
Gina and I were driving back from an appointment up north the other evening. We were tired and didn’t feel like cooking. Rather than the same old places, Gina suggested we try Whiskey Cake. Located in Plano, Texas on the west side of the North Dallas Tollway, Whiskey Cake is named after their signature dessert. The have a full-service bar and a wonderful patio area complete with fireplaces and swings.
Their claim to local fame is that almost everything is made from scratch. They even grow their own herbs on-site! Gina had the Mesquite Grill Redfish and I tried the Old Fashioned Hamburger. Wow! Great food. We washed it down with a couple of Jack and Cokes (it is Tennessee whiskey afterall).
We sampled the Whiskey Cake for dessert. Made from scratch and real whipped cream on top…yummy! Next time you’re looking for something a little different, drop by Whiskey Cake.

Spring in Texas is wonderful. The early spring rains give way to fields of Bluebonnets, Indian Paintbrushes, and Buttercups. I was out shooting photos of a new listing in Wylie, Texas the other afternoon. It’s a pretty home located on a huge creek lot and the back of the lot was alive with spring color. I wanted to frame in the home with the wild flowers, so I worked my way down towards the creek.
As I knelt in the grass, I noted tiny grasshoppers, honey bees, and a praying mantis busy working in the flowers. I stopped what I was doing and put a longer lens on my Nikon so I could capture some of the color and wildlife.
Sometimes it pays to stop and admire nature’s beauty.
