Spring in July
"The knowledge is Given to the Crane from Above"
I have actually had a bigger July than May this year from some odd reason. Maybe folks are realizing that things are not as dab as the media would like us to believe.
Or maybe folks just want to spend money, make their place look great. Commercial building work is also hopping along at what seems to be the normal pace-frantic . . . got to have it now.
Having it now
Speaking of which I am about to go look at one of those type of jobs right now. Literally up from the computer desk and out the door(after collecting drawing tools). A 10,000sq. ft. house out in the middle of nowhere Ohio where we are going to come up with most of the plan today.
It’s a draw, stake and paint kind of job.
Now that’s wanting it now. Sort of like driving up for a hmaburger, except in this case it’s quite the whopper!
I’m curious fellow Designers do you get into these kind of jobs, and if you do . . . do you like to do them?
Paid by the hour or flat rate for this type of work? E-mail me and let me know how you work this kind of job where you are
Look at the time, gotta go!
My hope is to use this site to spread some info about the art and practice of Landscape Design. It is a very misunderstood profession; I do not cut grass like the next door neighbor's cousin who carries 3 mowers and a blower in the back of his truck.
I will also pass along comments on industry happenings, events, etc., and any maybe a few other adventures going on in my world-after all this is "my" blog. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look. Questions? Drop me an e-mail.
