This quote from Warren Buffet seems to make a lot of great sense to me, I mean how hard is it to become a expert in one field, let alone a expert in two fields. The CENTS show is coming up in OHIO, and the ANLA Mgmt Clinic is coming up in Louisville, KY. Two… Continue reading Warren Buffet, on your Chosen Profession

CENTS Show, Coming Up!
I’ll be leaving for the CENTS show on Sunday morning, I need to be there by 11:30am. My stone workshop is SOLD OUT! A full class of 25 eager stone-niks. It should be a lot of fun.

Just got back from the job fair and it was very similar to last years numbers. By this, I mean those looking for jobs and companies with booths.

I overhead a great quote from the trade show floor today about Generation X and Y’ers . . . when it comes to landscaping and their landscapes. They’re a bunch of cellular landscapers. More later, after a small get-together.

A very late night report,very late. Apparently there was lots of networking and I had a 1st person view of the entire event. Well a lot of the networking, anyway. The APLD meeting went very well, the highlight was a designer from the SWestern part of the state-John DeVore. John packed so much good info,… Continue reading 2008 CENTS Show in Columbus, Ohio (3)

A morning of educational seminars has come and gone; question is . . . am I any smarter for having set through it? I’d say no, but the people with me would say they(and I) knew better. A few tidbits here and there made the morning worthwhile. Design Joanne Kostecky who owns Joanne Kostecky Garden… Continue reading 2008 CENTS Show in Columbus, Ohio (2)
