I have added a quick video on how to inflate those

stubborn tubeless tires, that never seem to want to take air.

 

Do you have a friend or family member who is either active or inactive military? We would like to send them and three others to a Maryland Blue Crabs baseball game. See details below "American Hero Program".

 

We will also share a quick tip on how to make your

plant containers a bit lighter, so they are easier to manage.

 

Please contact us with any questions or comments.

We would love to here from you.

 

Regards,
Gil Clark

Tubeless tires can often give you the impression that they need to be replaced when they go flat. 

The trick is to get the rubber to meet the rim, creating a seal, which in turn allows the air to stay in the tire and not just escape from the sides.

  Shobe and Gramophone's in-house interior designer Bethany Johnson worked closely with the builder, Ron Fansler from G.H. Clark Contractors, which made the planning much easier. The theater area would step up from the Browns' family sofa to a small box with two chairs, and behind that a bar with stools would separate the theater from the kitchenette. A half-wall on the front left side of the theater area allows pool players to draw their sticks back, and on the other side an alcove holds a rack of A/V equipment. Simple draperies hide the opening and the rack and help soften the room's acoustics.

American Hero Program 
 
G.H. Clark Contractors has teamed up with the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs baseball organization to honor our military members and their families. If you know of anyone who you would like to send to a ball game, please let us know and we will have tickets waiting at the gate! info@ghclark.com The night of the game they will be introduced as having proudly served in military and receive an introduction and standing recognition at the bottom of the 3rd inning.

We are very proud of our military and all who serve. The video below is what is shown on the jumbotron after the military member has been announced.
 



On behalf of the G. H. Clark family, thank you to all military personnel. God bless you and God bless your families.  Thank You ~ Gil Clark

Lighten Plant Containers 
 
Large plant containers can be too heavy to move once you've filled them with plants and soil. Lighten the load and save on potting mix by partially filling them with expanding foam insulation.

Just wrap wax paper around a paper towel core and hold it over the drainage hole. Fill the pot about a third full with the foam insulation. You should fill the foam in layers, allowing each layer to dry prior to spraying in the next layer.(Otherwise, the foam at the bottom stays gooey for days). Then remove the paper towel core. Make sure you screen the drainage hole when you pour in your soil so your pots will be able to drain well.
