It sure is! Plus my partner and I are well known throughout the commercial industry so there is no shortage of business nor is there much competition - between the two of us we have about 50 years of academic/research (both floriculture & horticulture), consulting, and TC experience. We started out specializing in hard to grow and difficult to propagate plants but grew as we were asked to grow a wider variety of crops. It sure beats fighting for grant money!

I taught at NU for 15 years and watched the baseball program grow with Coach Van Horn, now at Arkansas. I think Coach Anderson was a great hire and is doing a great job. I'm sorry to say I have not been following the Husker team this spring. Hope your nephew is having a good year.
