Shucks! Why didn't I replant the forest growing in my front yard? I just pulled about 100 of them little suckers! I could have been a west coast division of Grandsports Maple Trees, LLC.

Franchises are available. I will need financials for last 3 years and title to Chevelle.

Good one Gary! You know there are still helicopters in our maple trees. My son and I cleaned the gutters again and installed over 100' of gutter guards this past week. I have a couple more sections of gutter to do but they're always in the sun and it's been too hot.

I could open a Michigan franchise, I've pulled 1" seedlings out of the gutters. Anywhere else and the mower takes care or them, they become fertilizer for the lawn.

I have never it seen like this. As you may recall I got every one out of my yard,but they are growing in my landscape stone. They root to the smallest piece of dirt showing through the plastic! I know there are bigger worries like socialist take over and oil spills,but give me a break!

"helicopters" are the reason I don't have gutters. I like my Maple trees. :)

It is bad this year. If you recall I filled a 30 gallon trash can with helicopters just from the driveway. I cleaned them up again earlier this week and got another 20 gallons and they're still not done. When they finally stop I'll have to go up on the roof with a leaf blower and clean them off. We have areas where they stay piled up on the roof. Then they get wet and stay there rotting unless I blow them off.

for that price will you come out and trim and feed the tree each year?

We have a basement and without gutters we get too much water at the house.

I like maple trees to but ours a soft silver maples, they look nice but they're kind of a junk tree. I'd like some crimson maples or other hard maple.

I'm not signing the papers until it is in writing that Gary personally tends to the trees on a scheduled routine/preventative maintenance matrix, complete with pesticidal and herbicidal treatments, and frost protection.

I wish my wife would have taken pictures of me in my work garb when I was the used car manager for a Pontiac-Cadillac-Honda store in the late 70s early 80s. And yes,I did smoke cigars and take cash under the table!:p

Edit: just a little brag here,but at 23 years old I was one of the youngest salesmanagers around at the time.
