What an Unpredictable Year!!!
What a year! As I reflect on 2018, I am thinking how different this year was in comparison to when I started my business 27 years go. From weather to technology to employment, so much has changed. We had so much rain this spring and then went straight into a very hot summer. It reminds me of what often happened when I was a kid on the farm and we didn’t have a fall. We would go right into winter in October with the high being in the upper 20s.
There is so much new technology that has come out and of course, it is still coming. Then having to deal with labor issues that we all struggle with in pretty much every industry. My dad always said just keep your head up, think positive, treat people how you want to be treated and hopefully it will always come out good at the end. That’s why I enjoy going to so many conferences in our industry to learn new ways and learn from my peers and the younger generations too.
With that said, I’m so excited to see what is ahead for 2019. We are already booked well into spring. I can’t wait to see a lot of you this upcoming season at conferences and out on jobs. So, everyone keep your head held high and I wish everybody a very successful 2019 season.
