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!

One thing for sure,I won't blame it on Bush.

You are still sharp,I am proud of you.:ntwrthy:

"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.

And he has to pick all the helicopters!

In his one piece disco suit and white platform elevator goldfish go go boots. :D

Apparently you've seen Gary before. Waving

I don't think Jake was around in the 70s.

You telling me you changed your style? That's not what I heard.

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.
