First Post

I am moving my work blog from a slow, hard to use blog service here to blogspot. I wasn't updating my old work blog because it was so annoying to upload the picture; it took forever. This new spangled blog will cronicle the work of myself and my landscape crew at SMU. I think our work endlessly exciting and fascinating. You may or may not but I invite you take a look at what grounds management consists of. I do everything from plants to trash to sidewalks to signs. I have hundreds of picture from my past 4 1/2 years here at SMU here are some of them to get you caught up.
