"A Well moderated board that is a benevolent dictatorship, not a democracy" In business since June 16, 2010
Wish all of you in snow country all the best -- it's tough in the best of times, but the Farmer's Almanac is calling for a really bad winter this season. I'm already scouring Craigs List for firewood for the woodstove this winter. I usually go through 1-1/2 cords
As much as I dislike snow, I make a lot of money if we have a lot of snow selling tools and pressure washers to guys plowing, not to mention more soap to my regular customers.

The guy that does my yearly lawn weeding, tree trimming, and seeding confided in me that his winter snowplowing brings his small business into profitability for the year. Without that revenue, he couldn't survive strictly on mowing and yard work during the spring, summer and fall.
