some beers and music and alot of chalk. fun in the sun with kick ass friends.

This brown bear sow chased and caught an adult cow moose in a driveway. The bear was estimated to be about 500 lbs and the cow moose an older animal. After dragging the moose aways the bear dug into the   more...chest cavity and pulled the heart out and ate it. She then left but came back that night a few times looking for the moose which had been towed down the road untill the next in line on the moose kill list was notified to come salvage the meat.  less

You finally get to see Froghall Bank, I talk about laying a driveway to park my car earlier in the year and how I got stickered for not recycling.

When I first got my cats I realized I didn't know anything about cats, so I got two books, "Good Owners, Great Cats" by Kilcommons and "How to Get Your Cat to Do What You Want" by   more...Epstein. Both books encouraged cat owners to allow their cats to remain indoors, but to teach them to walk on a leash as a way to widen their worlds and keep them happy, so that's what I did. I posted the video "Sam in Driveway on Harness and Leash", among other videos in the same vein, showing Sam having a great time outdoors on her leash. A comment was posted saying Sam is too skinny, and that I was wrong to let Sam outdoors on a leash and that cats should be let to "rome" [sic]. This is the reply. Warning: a couple images are not very nice. Cheers, Sam's Mama  less

It's nice to have people that help ya out. We never got plowed out, and this fine fellow comes to our aide, and gets stuck lol.

"Sam the Black Cat Outside in Harness and Leash" bothered me, so I re-edited it to be smoother and more focused on the punch line -- "crab" grass for the "crabby" Sam. By   more...the way, the typeface I used for "crab grass" is called Claws. Thanks for watching, Kath (Sam's Mama)  less

KATHY PART 2 (TALKING ABOUT THE DRIVEWAY)

My driveway looks much worse in person. Video is great, but it does NOT capture the true mess of this thing, we call, our driveway.

http://www.gopherforum.com - A question I get asked often on the Gopher Lawn Care Business Forum is, what other services can I offer to make more money? I usually have a bunch of ideas to share with them   more...but here is a great idea I hadn’t even considered. One of our members wrote “Yesterday I was out giving lawn care quotes.

We have had a few customers ask if we would seal their paved driveway, our response has been this is not a service we offer at this time however we will note you are interested should we decide to offer it.

I had two clients ask me about this today. I was at their homes for other work when it just came up.

As I was driving to find a milk shake I noticed two guys with a small truck spraying sealer on a paved driveway and decided to stop. They had a pretty simple setup. I asked for some business cards as we had clients asking and it was something we didn’t do. I liked the job they did and we talked about pricing, subcontracting them etc.

They do this straight by the square foot, they roll around the edges of the driveway with a 16? roller then spray. It is very quick to do this job but what a mess the back of their truck was.

They offered me a 20% referral which I think I will do for now, I don’t think this is something that interests me due to the mess.

But as I was driving home I started looking at paved driveways, I think this could be another gold mine.

I think lawn care extends to property care. Any thing we can do to help the home owner and make a buck at, interests me.

Did more reading tonight on it and found this is a high profit margin service, seems like it is a fairly easy sale also.

The number one downside is the mess, I looked at a number of companies, pictures etc. The vehicles are a mess which I understand, it would be next to impossible to keep things clean and staff being what they are, it would not fit well with my image push in yard care. Eventually even the inside of vehicles would be a mess even if we did use a trailer.

I called and spoke with the owner of this small company again last night, I received the names of two of his clients and called them to see if they were happy with the work done, that passed so I emailed him two of my clients and we shall see how this goes.

The issue with sub contracting in my experience is if there is an issue with the work, even though it’s not your issue, your client will make it your issue as you referred someone. I have to take a chance and see how this goes, this could work for both of us.”

What a fantastic insight! Maybe you could offer this service to your current lawn care customers or maybe you could find a company and sub-contract them out for a %. Experiment with both options and see which works best for you.
