Being the Best at What You Do

One of the goals we strive for here at KHT is to be the “best” at what we do.  Whether it’s working together to solve your PIA (Pain in the @%$) Jobs!, providing great customer service, consistently delivering on time and on budget, or just being a bright spot in your day, we all work […]

Happy Easter

Whatever lifts your spirits, brings you hope and fills you with the miracle of Easter— that’s what I’m wishing for you. Have a blessed Easter!     How did you do on last week’s logo contest? Check out our logo guide for the “Ornamental Lawns” post here!

Ornamental Lawns

As we began to plan the plants and landscape designs for the spring and season, one thought popped into my head by my sister Peggy (she was even gracious enough to send me a link!) – Who are the people pulling plastic flamingos out of their shed? Scattered throughout our communities, and often part of […]

It’s a Circus

With everything going on across the country, and all the changes in Washington, a friend of mine used the term “a circus” to describe all the events, attractions, daredevils, tightrope walkers, big animals, and more.

SWEET! Desserts

A couple of weeks ago we had the opportunity to exhibit at a trade show in Vegas SHOT SHOW- (Shooting – Hunting- Outdoor – Tactical), joining 65,000+ others.

NASA Marvels

I have to admit it – I’m a sucker for new inventions and amazing technology. While traveling out of town to attend a trade show in Vegas, I happened to drive past the large NASA technology center here in northeast Ohio, home to some of the world’s largest and most capable space simulation test facilities […]
