A few well-deserved days off should be on their way to you — special delivery. And when they arrive, please accept our best wishes for the season. If you find yourself itching for some Houston real estate action on your Christmas vacation, remember: The voting deadline for the 2014 Swamplot Awards is this coming Saturday, December 27th, at 5 pm. So how about casting about a few ballots this way or that? Swamplot will return to its regular posting schedule the following Monday, December 29th.
