Just writing that sentence has us taking a bracing breath. You too? We’ll break out the tequila later.




We also held our usual monthly company meeting on November 10, which is really important to help our staff and agents connect and catch up with what everyone is doing and what their plans are for the next few weeks. We also try to add an educational element to these get-togethers, inviting guest speakers to make presentations and expand our horizons of knowledge a bit. This month we were pleased to have Brittany Beall from Southern CPA, Sondra Thirston of Red Door Homes in Gainesville, and Ryan Gray of McKenzie’s Moment.
It was a productive, enlightening, and frankly fun afternoon – why should office meetings be dull and mind-numbing? – and we gratefully thank each of these guests for coming in and sharing their time and inspiration with us.



At the Cade Museum for Creativity and Invention, we were proud to be a sponsor for the second annual Food and Agriculture Festival on November 20 in Gainesville. The event was postponed for 2019 due to the pandemic, but was back in full force this year with food trucks, vendors, games, and live music. Part of Farm City Week hosted by the American Farm Bureau Association, it makes farming education available to the general public and shows off the plethora of agricultural commodities that are developed and grown right here in Florida. The Cade is the perfect place to spend a day learning new things in creative, fun ways, so they were the ideal host for the Festival – and a great place to spend a day with your kids anytime, so check them out!

Happy Holidays to all who celebrate, and we’ll see you in the New Year!
