The best meetup I know of in Springfield is the 3rd Thursday of the month at the Hilton Garden Inn  

He just got hit by the State of CA, Department of Industrial Relations - "Labor commissioner's office" with a claim from their gardener who was painting their house and got 'injured'There was no agreement or just basic agreement stating that the gardener and then painter was an independent contractor.  

We finished the basement, added a second bathroom, new AC, new water heater, garden work among other things.

Landscaping out front - a few arborvitae shrubs on each side of entrance will do . 6 pack of Solar outside garden lights near entry

Well I guess IM not a smart guy either just a country guy who rather work in the garden then spend the day in the office.Alex

My In-Laws are looking to sell their home located in Garden Grove, CA within this year.

Is it deteriorating, neighbors have piles of trash or stuff outside their houses, broken collection of vehicles in the yard or kept yards, gardens, landscaping of some sort? 

- Drain pool, cover pool- Run HVAC for 10 minutes, AC/Heat- Leave refrigerator slightly open- Run all water fixtures and flush toilets a few times- Drain and turn off water heater - Have gardener specifically look for rodents intrusion Any and all ideas on additional long-term storage welcome.

@CJ M.My HOA president spends a lot of landscaping because his wife is really into gardening.
