We're scheduling a duct and vent cleaning with James and if anyone else is interested, we can get a group discount. Normally, this service costs $350, but if more people sign up, the price drops to $199 per home! Not cleaning your dryer vent increases the risk of fire in your home because lint and dust build up inside the vents, which can become a serious fire hazard.
We've used this service before, and they do an excellent job.
If you're interested, please PM me your contact info and address, and you can contact him directly at 772-253-8925 and I'll arrange a convenient time.
The sight records for 2025 have been reviewed, and the Report for that year
is in process. Here's the report for 2025 in its sneak-preview form, with
selected photos from records and the headline photo of the Olive Warbler
in place. Here’s a Preview Link:
