Virtual Office Update

2009-10-13T08:43:00.000-07:00

Today is the type of the day (it's raining and very windy) that makes me glad that I've set up my virtual office. I've been listening to the radio and I'm glad I'm not trying to get to the office.

My virtual office has been working out very well. I have all of the equipment, but no commute or desk fees. The only thing I miss sometimes is the interaction with the other agents (especially during the football season).

I even have a backup plan for power outages. The Public Library, Starbucks and Barnes & Nobles all offer free Wi-fi.

I must apologize, even though people tell you not to, for neglecting my blog. I hate to admit it, but I've been tweeting instead of blogging.

It looks like they are finally starting work again on the Whole Foods Store on Blossom Hill Road in San Jose. They have put up the fence, brought in the earth moving equipment and have started to move dirt around. I'm just wonder why they are starting at the beginning of winter.

Update - Blossom Hill Road Whole Foods

2009-08-11T15:19:00.000-07:00

I find my updates on the Blossom Hill Road Whole Foods from numerous sources. Today's update comes from Scott Herhold's My Opinion column in the San Jose Mercury News (click on the title for the whole column).

The Landlord, Bruce Hamann, reports that construction will be starting soon and the Whole Foods is scheduled to open in year, on August 11, 2010. The store will only be 50,000 sf as compared to the original concept of 60,500 sf. Basically, everything is a year behind.

The column also mentioned the Stockton Ave/The Alameda store that has received approval for a 44,000 sf. It should probably come on line three to six months after the Blossom Hill store.
