This is extreme Web 2.0 farming. Web enabled /door to door-good for the community high visibility. Take that Redfin fangirl!

ps - there just might be a Fletcher Heights Area Food Drive in my future! (I’ll have to call you for help with the logistics though)

Kris & Steve,

You guys set a great example for others to follow! (and I’m not just talking about the food drive!) You do things for the rights reasons; any goodwill or neighborhood reputation is well deserved. And at the end of the day (there’s that phrase again), there are an awful lot of families who are thankful you took the time to put this together.

Good on you!

Chris, you organized a fantastic event and have put in a lot of work. Giving is very important. Organizing this drive for your community, I am sure, is much appreciated.

I could not stop grinning while watching your video. What a great thing to happen! Your organization, the Scripps residents’ generosity, and the voluteers who seemed to be having a GREAT time. As a Rotary member I am also thrilled to see the Interact kids working alongside you. How wonderful that the food will go to people who need a hand!!!

>More importantly, thank you Scripps Ranch residents for making San Diego county wealthier today.

Ditto that, Brian. I can’t begin to tell you how utterly amazed I was at the graciousness and giving. I was flagged down during my pick-ups by one woman who said she had left a bag curbside but was going to the store to buy more. She asked if she could bring it to my home later in the day. How incredibly cool is that? We had several residents call asking if we would “let them” help in the collection effort. We even found a “thank you” note stapled to one of the donation bags: At a home listed by another agent. That was the highlight of my day, and I sincerely mean that.

Kris and I thank all of you for your comments. But we should always remember that this event was not supposed to be about us but the people all over this country who are in need of food every day. Food banks like Second Harvest of San Diego are the ones who do the heavy lifting. We cannot thank them enough.
