I saw lots of spraying going on in effort to keep the bloodsuckers at bay. Saturday morning saw many vehicles […]

Post Irma Florida Frontiersmen, Inc. Report
It’s post Irma day two. I know many Florida Frontiersmen are still without electrical power, but I’m relieved to report that I found no one hurt or lost their homes.

Great Workday!
Great workday except the Honeybee stings. Jim passed the torch to Chris without a hitch. The covered range crew with the leadership of Mark and engineering of Jim suffered the extreme heat to put the roof battens on the east side. Great crew…great job. The lawn crew bush hogged, weed whacked, and mowed to get the […]
