This is how you make history interesting.
Two years ago Atlanta had an ice storm that shut down the city and we were certain that no one would come. It turned out to be our best market ever. This year it’s 58 and sunny and it’s a ghost town. This is no surprise however, in fact it’s been this way since that ice storm two years ago. Buyers just don’t go to…

jump from henry james on Vimeo. 3 weeks and counting of consistent exercise, but the results have been unnoticable. Nevertheless, today’s activities were comedic. Devin managed to get his jump on, but Sonia blames her short legs for not quite becoming one with the trampoline. I on the other hand, racked my back.
#3: Do something I would never do Sonia and i intentionally stripped down and stepped into this cryo chamber and endured two minutes of -240 degrees in the name of pain relief. My back did immediately feel better. So, between electrocuting and freezing myself, #3 goes down.
#13: Try 10 New Los Angeles Restaurants Escargot at the Little Next Door for lunch.
#41: Plant a Lime Tree Look, Ma, I planted it with my own two hands.
Can’t wait to vote. If I could write in a candidate for president, I’d write in anybody else.
#49: New Workout We added this electro workout to our rotation and holy hell. It’s the only machine like it in the US and lucky for us it’s in Beverly Hills. Basically you go twenty minutes straight of squats, push ups, planks, curls, etc. while being electrocuted.
#23: Hike to the Wisdom Tree Figured we switch it up and take advantage of the gorgeous day. Sorry East Coast friends. It was brutally steep hike. I was KO’d a quarter of the way up. I Needed several breaks before reaching the peak. Left a note of wisdom on the tree as is the custom. Trying to find our home.

#13: Try 10 New Los Angeles Restaurants Lunch at the new downtown restaurant, Otium. Two thumbs up.
Saw the Eagles at the Forum a year and half ago and they were fantastic as usual. Tough start of the year for musicians.
IMG_6014 from henry james on Vimeo. A little country in LA. Loved the Garth Brooks’ cover.
IMG_5995 from henry james on Vimeo. Another band with an entire set of top 10 hits. Hopefully my ears recover from standing in front of the speakers.
So you’re saying there’s a chance.
IMG_5924 from henry james on Vimeo. On a last minute whim, we went to see solo artist, and former frontman of the group Chicago, Peter Cetera. It was awesome. Every song was an 80’s hit. It was like being in a Karate Kid movie.
A heavy subject, but it made for a great movie.
My expectations were high, but I’m pretty lukewarm on this one. The cinemotography was top notch. Leo was great. But the story and payoff… Meh.
