A stormy beach day can't stop this crew! 🌧️🌊🐶
William , the girls (Kinsey & Mochi 🐾), and I took a rainy drive by Good Harbor Beach and along Back Shore to check out the wild surf crashing against the rocks! 🚗💨🌊
Even with the misty skies and moody weather, the views were absolutely stunning—and the puppies definitely enjoyed sniffing that salty ocean breeze out the car window! 🌬️🦮 Nose out, ears flapping, complete storm-chasing mode activated. 😂🛞
Nothing beats a cozy coastal ride with my favorite beach babes and my handsome passenger William! 🩵☁️✨

While living with parents as an adult can be a necessity, it could also be a great way to save up for a home of your own.

According to the Wall Street Journal, citing Federal Reserve data from last year, 49% of adults under age 30 say they live with a parent.

Some evenings remind you why you love this community.

Tonight was one of them — the Generous Gardeners "Classic Chrome and Dazzling Dahlias" gala at the incredible Frank McCracken car collection in East Gloucester. If you haven't seen this space, it's worth the trip on its own: a beautifully restored 1873 firehouse now housing a jaw-dropping run of vintage Rolls-Royces, Jaguars, a Mercedes 280SL, and more, all gleaming like they rolled off the line yesterday. Add in cocktails, incredible passed apps from Timothy S. Hopkins Catering, a lively live auction, and a room full of neighbors who showed up to support local green spaces — and you've got a genuinely great night.

Grateful to have been there, camera in hand. Nights like this are a good reminder of why I love representing this community, one house (and one gala) at a time. 🌿🚗

If you're local and didn't make it out this year — keep an eye out for next year's gala. Well worth it.

Expectation: sharp suit, briefcase, sipping espresso in a marble lobby. Reality: disheveled, paint on my shirt, hair doing its own thing, tie somehow still on — but that SOLD sign is real. 😂🏡 Closing deals doesn't always look glamorous, but it always feels good.
