Who invented the garden hose?
The year is 1652. The place: Amsterdam.

A 12-year old boy, named Jan Van der Heiden, watches in awe as the city's town hall burns to the ground. The event makes a lasting impression.
Twenty years pass. Van der Heiden and a group of men, standing on ladders along a canal, fill a watersack which is supported in a trestle, with buckets. From the trestle, water flows in a linen hose down to the fire engine tank below. And the first fire hose is born.
The linen hoses are soon replaced by leather, which are hand-stitched, a trade that was common in Holland's seafaring industry. It isn't long, though before more uses are found for Van der Heiden's invention and the first garden hose is born.

This is e-news letter is new terrain for Pamela and I. We hope to tweak and improve it as we go along in 2005. One of our clients thought it would be a good way to stay in touch. It was also suggested that we publish related reader submitted articles, events, recipes, home tips, etc. for all to see...
If you have something of interest to share please email it to us at
eNews@mdrealtygroup.com
and we will see that it is published.
Thanks to all !!

Tell them Nick and Pam sent you!
Did you know that.....
For the Home Seller!

Most commercial air fresheners do not freshen the air at all. Instead, they mask one odor with another, coat your nasal passages with an undetectable oil film, or diminish your sense of smell with a nerve-deadening agent.
A note for home shoppers....Be wary of underlying causes in homes where excessive amounts of odor masking scents are used. Most are used for reasons other than just freshening a room!


Have you painted your homes interior within the last 12 months or so and it still looks great?
Want to convey that fact while your home is showing without saying a word?
Repaint one smaller wall close to the front door. The hint of a fresh paint smell will create the elusion of a complete paint job!
Makes Scents! Ask us for more home staging tips.........
