We are supposed to get less than an inch. I just wish it would warm up.

Heck, I am getting a new aerator delivered on Friday. I just hope that I will be there and not busy doing snow. I want the season to begin so bad.

What brand did you end up getting, tiedeman?

tiedeman · #**165** 01-22-2004, 02:15 AM

Turfco. I thought that I would give them a chance and see the results. The product was a reasonable price, only about $2,200.

I'm in metro-detroit and after september my business got cut in half. the only thing paying the bills was sod and fall clean-ups. Now I'm just waiting to see if my plow is ever going to pay itself off. Gotta love that dependable michigan weather

what happened that made business to be cut in half?

The whole snow aspect is mind boggling. Like this year up here is doing great for the past 2 weeks. In the past 2 weeks we have received the same amount of snow that we received all of last winter. That's why when someone steps out to buy a brand new truck, with new plow for winter time everybody just laughs at him because the snow predicting for the winter is a role of the dice. We have considered moving snow removal operations up north to the Gaylord area. You never know though. Hope that everything goes well with ya.
