Not all may be as it seems….. When you buy an existing house, aren’t you interested in having it inspected? Wouldn’t you like to know if the roof leaks, if the wiring is up to code and whether the plumbing works? Of course you would! It’s called “due diligence.” It’s hard to imagine a scenario

Record Snow in March!

trivia / GG

Well, at least the most snow I’ve observed at my house since 2006. I’ve measured 9.2 inches so far which is ten times the MONTHLY average of 0.96 inches! That’s pretty impressive. Although it’s melting fast, the snowfall has nevertheless delayed spring fieldwork. Jobs are stacking up as a result, and as soon as people
