You want the rocking chair?

It's hard to stay in touch with everybody.

You know its true. As we move through life, we meet new people everyday - sometimes we greet one another and go our seperate ways and other times stay a while and chat, forming a relationship that benefits us both. Sometimes those relationships are so life-changing that we wonder how we ever got along without them. We stay best of friends, through joy, sadness and pain.

Often, however, we just move on. We don't don't forget about those who've helped us along, but life carries us too fast through its currents to really keep in touch. If you're like me, you can't help but wonder how someone's doing, even though you've not spoken in years.

Hopefully, this is no longer the case. Today is an exciting day for Eastern Eight - this blog and, more importantly, the new website offers us the chance to reach our friends, partners and clients like never before. These new tools make it possible for us to reach everyone, on their terms, despite the raging rapids of life.

Ever sit on a porch and watch the day turn into night? That's a peaceful setting, and even more enjoyable when you're watching it with a friend.

This blog is our porch, and we're inviting you to join us as we sit a spell. Just like in real life, we're not sure where the conversation will take us as we watch life roll about us. We might have some laughs, learn some things and make a few new friends.

We'd love to have some of our homeowners and partners contribute to this blog. To get an invitation, just send us an email. We'll get back to you soon.

I think I'll head back inside. You can stay out on the porch a bit longer if you'd like.

Come back any time.
