In a good year, we take April 1 as an opportunity to play a joke on our friends and clients by rolling out some fictitious new product that will revolutionize the lawn and landscape industry. Coming up with absurd product ideas like the "FocalDrone" and "BlockReader" is always a collaborative effort in our office, and it usually involves me being doubled over in laughter at the ideas we come up with.

This year, though, I'm by myself in the office, and like most of you, I'm trying to keep my head above water as the current crisis in front of us evolves on a daily basis. I am hopeful that we will all come out of this stronger in some way and that next April Fools' Day we will have something hilarious to drop on you. 

Until then, stay safe, stay healthy, and stay in touch.
