Our biggest motivation is always to meet and exceed the needs of our wonderful clients. We get almost all of our business through referrals from happy customers and colleagues, and choose to keep it that way. And this allows us to keep our pricing more competitive without having to cover advertising overhead. But I gotta say, getting recognition is pretty cool, especially when it's not something we pursued. |
Bend low again, night of summer stars. |
However you celebrate, be sure it's outdoors and slow down to really observe and find the beauty all around you. Let me know in the comments below what you think about this sweet poem and what you did to celebrate!

This week we are thinking about and celebrating local places, local-ness, the beautiful scenery we are lucky to have, and picnics. Let me explain!
Tomorrow is International Picnic Day, not that we need a special holiday to make a picnic worthy of celebrating.
And since we want to share time with Dad on Sunday, I think we should all spend the day outside with our family and friends enjoying a picnic. There's nothing that sounds bad about that, right? Consider that aside from some well-earned downtime, there are health and general wellness benefits too!!

A few years ago, I did a huge project on a property in the Sierra Foothills community of Granite Bay.
It was a really neat property - 1.2 acres, full of large oak trees, a large spanish-style home with full access to a 10 acre riparian reserve with a seasonal creek, large cottonwood trees, and lots of wildlife.
Thing is, it was situated on a local neighborhood road that was a main route to the nearby elementary school. And although the property offered so much nature and beauty, it didn't have any privacy at all from the street.

Technically, I missed National Gardening Day which was yesterday, April 14th. But that's okay, I think we should turn it into a weekend celebration!
Honestly, for me it's a daily celebration year-round. Even in the winter, while I might not be out in my garden actively growing things or enjoying the garden, I'm most definitely planning ahead for the coming season and dreaming up new ideas and projects.
To encourage you to jump into gardening if you aren't already obsessed, and to remind those of us that are in deep already why we do it, I wanted to share 10 Reasons Why Gardening is Good for You.
