Thank you all for the kind remarks--it is still a work in progress though! Barbcoleus--the trellises in Angel Alley are from a neighbors gazebo that got destroyed during a storm right after I bought the property and also destroyed my mine which turned into the pergola! I want to do alot of vines on the pergola and trellises. Pergola gets afternoon sun and trellises are in shade all day--any suggestions? I want to do some passies, dutchmans pipe and peavine for starters-need recommendations!!! Thanks! Donna - will call you when I get back from the store (groceries-not plants! LOL) Linda

Have you been told, 'If you have to ask...
Q

I'm wondering if he just used a very unfortunate choice of words to express the idea that it takes him time to do an estimate and that's a loss if you're a casual inquirer. Is the same as the "qualifying" process idea, but any craftsman, designer or similar person just has to have some kind of sequence of involvement that they can rely on that saves them time but still attracts new customers. I don't know how this works, of course, since the problem is, with many such efforts, you can't come up with an accurate estimate unless you know most of what you're being asked to do, so if it takes you 30 min, even, to figure that out, and you do that several times daily, and the return is low, you're broke. If someone is well-established in a fairly high end business, he might well charge a fee just to talk and see your wish list and give an estimate, and then that cost will be applied if you buy. For cabinetry, I would wonder if the person could have any kind of brochure or book of work with some example prices, even if price range was kinda broad and there were multiple disclaimers about "prices subject to change". I mean, you might be trying to figure out whether a custom built-in hutch costs $3k or $30 k, or whatever. My point is just that, it would be more straightforward to be told it'll cost me to sit down with the guy and get an estimate, since that is just the business of how he values his time, and that would not be offensive, as I can then make my decision about whether I value it the same amount, and includes the sensible idea that people agree on fees before doing any level of business, compared to the "if you have to ask" approach.

Thank you for posting this, Thistle. I'm worn out and frustrated tonight from dealing with some business details. Your post caused me take a deep breath, count my blessings, and realize that I'm blessed with even to having to deal with those details, not to mention the most important blessings of a wonderful family and great friends. Yes, I'm very blessed. Thanks for the reminder!
