People must be out and about, getting things wound up and going for the season!! The posts have slowed down to about a page a day instead of 4 or 5 pages. If it will ever stop raining long enough for the sun to come out I'm sure I'll be gone too. Hope everybody is mowing like gangbusters and remember... Let's be careful out there.

During the day the amount of posts are slowing down, but at night, we had 101 on the boards at 8:30 PM Central and we are still getting a lot of posts. We have had 4 pages of posts on this forum in the past 2 days. It's like last summer, only we have a lot more members now. :)

It was 75 degrees and sunny here in SC. What a beautiful day to be outside and churning out the business. No time for lawnsite and not much energy right now to even be sitting up.

I completely agree Charles. I have fallen asleep at the pc the last 3 nights. I still have 3 days worth of 1st cuts on the list and other jobs also. I quit advertising and I still have been picking up 2 a day just by word of mouth and neighbors seeing us out. I was at 40 on monday, I'm over 50 now. I'm ready for a vacation. Is it winter yet? :D

67 degrees here today, in the 70's the next 3 days, so with this warm rain we got and warm temps, another week and we should be on the turf again. :)

Cleanups, Cleanups, and more Cleanups. Grass is still brown but enough waiting. VERY dry here also. The last two days I have come home Looking like pig pen. We might hit 60 FINALLY this weekend(we are right by Lake Michigan so we get a lake breeze that keeps us cooler that inland). Cleanups will be done by Wed. Then I will have some time for them odd jobs. Probably start Weekly mowing on the 23.
