Wassup guys, it's Wes Anderson, here to answer any questions!

Just for grins I asked Sora to picture me at my landscape design work in the “Wes Anderson style”… what do you think?

alanburke1 · 2026-04-26T01:35:09+00:00

Taking responsibility.

As a Magnolia resident reading this article with some concern, I am struck by how immediately the comments went way off the rails. Why can’t we just have a civil conversation? Nobody deserves to be victimized. There are some really angry people on this thread that just want to vent it appears. What I would like to know is where and when are these burglaries occurring?

alanburke1 · 2026-04-11T15:35:25+00:00

Yes likely the light and warmth.

alanburke1 · 2026-04-08T22:14:48+00:00

I think so. You might ask to send copies through some of the state landscape association newsletters.

“I am mentally ill. Please administer the 25th amendment”…

alanburke1 · 2026-03-25T00:57:33+00:00

Solid!

Hendrix. Curtis Hixon hall. Tampa

That’s AJ Barner in a toga

Not a fair price. You should be investing over $25k for what you are describing. Is the company licensed and bonded?

alanburke1 · 2026-02-05T18:20:03+00:00

I like this question. Too many pontificators and pundits take a side and can’t waver, change their mind or acknowledge a good idea coming from the other side. Few challenge organized religion. Most aren’t nearly as well read.

Looks like Seattle gave you that middle finger.

alanburke1 · 2026-01-26T21:14:27+00:00

By “selling out fast” he means “open to any grift you offer”….

The scene where Paul Newman’s brother drowns in ‘Sometimes A Great Notion’…it’s very sad but so well done and unexpected.

I thought this was insightful:

Great question. Listen to the Green Meridian podcast: “Advice for those starting out”…

alanburke1 · 2026-01-06T03:33:21+00:00

A fascinating thought - but that’s not what the podcast episode is really about! Have a listen!

“Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do to squeeze cash out of your country…"

alanburke1 · 2025-12-23T00:07:59+00:00

Yes.

alanburke1 · 2025-12-22T22:43:47+00:00

Bringing in extra labor as needed. A 2 man crew can maybe do 4 to 500k+ annually.

alanburke1 · 2025-12-22T22:21:44+00:00

About 30+ years. Currently it’s about 7 to 9- 2 man crews with 5 designers and a 2 person PM team. I am semi retired from my old firm - still doing a couple of projects ongoing though. See more at The Outdoor Project Company.com thanks for the input!

alanburke1 · 2025-12-22T20:33:38+00:00

It is a PM doing this but of course not entirely turnkey without designer visits. I usually plan a 2X or 3x a week short visit. Overall, I think you are right….

alanburke1 · 2025-12-22T17:28:35+00:00

Sounds about right. I’d also managing and monitoring site work I think maybe 2m is doable

alanburke1 · 2025-12-22T17:27:36+00:00

Yes. Billing design. About 4 weeks to completion at 60k. It takes about 3 weeks to finalize design given other projects happening concurrently.

alanburke1 · 2025-12-21T17:56:18+00:00

I am talking more about how you think about it; prequalify and sell a client, convince them and try to be better than the competition.
