And again, more rain…

… but we just keep on plugging away. I really do have to commend the crew for their cheery depositions during all this cold and rainy weather. We are making very good progress in the face of some very challenging conditions. As a comparison, we lost 10 days to weather by this time last year, this year we have only lost 3, and the weather has been pretty much the same. IMG_4281IMG_4285

All the things we are doing differently that allow us to proceed this year are:

- taking care of surface water and runoff, before it becomes an issue... That’s it.

That entire list, of one items is the reason we can ‘giv’er’ We are taking incredible care, even to the extents of going to the next project and pre-grading, just in case it rains before we get there. Again, great job team.

I drove into the neighbourhood today while it was raining, and pulled up next to the other landscaper working on our block. I rolled the window down and he says “what the hell is all this, man?'” referring to all the rain. IMG_4287

I took his picture and asked if I could quote him, because it pretty much sums it all up. What the hell IS all this… man.

Our crew seems much smarter. they get out of the rain…sometimes…  hehe.IMG_4289

Just Friday left and we are off for the long weekend. This is one of the valuable perks for our crew. Guaranteed long weekends off. Have fun and be safe team, be ready to ‘giv’er’ on Tuesday!
