I can listen to books and educate myself on whatever I want while at the gym, in the car, etc.Audible has been game changing for me as I can't read fast but can absorb audio information quickly and thoroughly.I have read/listened a few higher level books and am starting to focus on learning more about specific topics.Below is what I have read so far.

The homes were in the areas I wanted to be in Richmond County more specifically: Olde Towne and Harrisburg.
