  Great work man, you should get your local Home Depot or Lowes to advertise for you, just tell them you will get your clients to buy the materials from their store... Free Advertising!!!

• Andre - you've got skillz bro!     I mowed my lawn for the first time yesterday.  I have a service come out and fertilize for me.  I did the math and it was about the same cost of me buying the bags of Scotts and doing it myself.  Sprinkling - I do have underground sprinkling, but I haven't had a need to turn it on yet. 
  The temp here in MI is going to drop from the 70s this week to 40 this weekend.  I doubt I'll get much done outside.

• Lawn/Yard work? I wish I had a yard to maintain.
  
  
  BA, that is some truly phenomenal landscaping there. Very worthy of the magazine spreads.
  
  Well done mate

• Yes, because I dont think the Palm trees would survive here very long.  I dunno though...with the winters that we have been having..pretty mild...they just might...Palm trees wont be considered coastal states any more! LOL  as well as earthquakes

• I did my 4th mowing last night    In Texas, our mowing season goes from April - November.  Way too much.  I have 1 1/2 acre lot that takes about 3 hours total to mow and trim.

• BA, you're a dude with many talents.
  Wow, my wife would like you for a husband. Did I say husband!
  I mean landscaper.
  
  I believe I mentioned this somewhere before.
  I'm buying a new mower. Thinking about this Troy-built.
  
  
  
  Maybe my wife will say this 'bout me when I'm landscaping our yard!

• I havent even mowed yet.  My neighbors all have about 3 times...im starting to look a little shabby.  I guess my grass is making up for what I dont have on my head.

• Yes. Here is what I have done in the 2 months (live in Birmingham. Been warm for a bit).
  
  Backyard:
  
  1. Put up a new iron fence to seperate the dogs side of the backyard and our side.
  2. Planted 6 azaleas, 2 willows, 6 flats of flowers, 3 grape vines, and several ferns.
  3. Built my little girls slide/swing/treehouse (that sucked).
  4. Weeded
  
  Front Yard:
  
  1. Fertilized front and back 2 times now with my special recipe
  2. Put in water pond and assorted plants, and run a pump underground to it.
  3. lots of flowers.
  4. new straw everywhere.
  5. Edge like crazy.
  6. Weeded...alot. Love the dirt new houses use under the grass.
  
  Its starting to green up and looks better than everyone else's. Outside work clears my head.
