I’m coming out of hibernation, and my bicycling muscles are sore! This is the morning’s ride: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=3503532
I decided that for 2010, the nearby Antelope Island ride was too good to ignore. I bought an annual state park pass and an Antelope Island causeway pass so that I could do the ride as often as I please without being peeved about the $3 fee. Since I paid $85 on the deal, I guess I’ll need to ride 85/3 = 29 times. at 32 miles per trip thats 29*32 = 928 miles. That will help the old guy to feel younger.
Today’s counts:
31.4 miles
100’s of gulls
15 bison — who were about as energetic as a rock (thank you bison)
1 coyote
1 pheasant
12 Canadian geese
1 hawk
12 bicyclists
2 runners
ACT I Brand X
I thought this was a recession! I thought that carpet cleaners would be begging for work! I called Brand X last week and scheduled today at 1 pm. At 1:30 it was a no show so I called to see if they were still coming. They said “Gee we don’t have you on the schedule!” Needless to say, after spending hours moving furniture in preparation, I was a little disappointed. I expressed my dismay, and they said they’d have someone over at 5 pm. At 5:30 it was a no show, so I called to ask if they were still coming. The gal I talked to said “Gee I can’t understand that. You’re not on the schedule, and I remember talking to you earlier”. Again (and I’ll pat myself on the back for keeping my cool) I expressed my dismay.
ACT II Simply Clean Carpet & Upholstery Care, Clearfield UT
After leaving the Brand X call, I started calling local Google listings for carpet cleaners. I connected with Stephen Galloway, owner of Simply Clean. I told him my story of woe. Steve had already done a day’s work, and had just arrived home. But he said, “Gee do you have all that furniture moved? … OK … How about I come over and do the job in about 20 minutes?” 20 minutes later he was here setting up his equipment.
As you might assume, I’m writing this just because I believe folks who know how to provide good service should be rewarded. Well that’s Stephen of Simply Clean Carpet & Upholstery Care. I was totally impressed with his service attitude, and as you might expect, the cleaning was top notch!
If you are in Davis County Utah ( Clinton, Clearfield, Syracuse, Layton, etc) I whole-heartedly recommend this company for your carpet cleaning needs!
