Maintanance

Terre,

I have been talking to a woman that I know that has a great maintainance biz in my area....it feels like a thing to tap into...my marriage situation is changing and I need to step it up a bit.

She does mow, prune, weed eat, clean up, etc. She loves what she does and makes great $$ doing it. No, not EASY work, but it seems if your body is in fair shape, you love being outdoors, and like hard physical work it would be good.

I do have some equipment to startout with. I am aiming for the more consistant paycheck, year round, and still be able to design, also. I think if I did do maintainance, especially on the designs that I create, it could go hand in hand very well.

In my state, you have to be licensed to install. Does your state require that?

Would you suggest any publications that might be good to check out in regards to maint?

Thanks a bunch
