Hi Dave. I had a landscape contracting business in Calif. in the '60s. When we moved to Idaho in 1971, I changed professions, simply because the local residents were mostly content with what nature had provided them. A few trees, some snowberry bushes, some thimble berries, some wild strawberries, maybe a huckleberry plant or two. Those who would have liked a landscaped yard couldn't afford it. As far as yard or field maintenance were concerned, most were happy with what their horse, cow, goat or the resident deer and moose might take care of. Ha Ha Implements like the Gravely were just not in demand.
