For almost 20 years (20 years ago. lol) the van with the big hand was roaming Central New York handlettering signs. These days you'll find me bopping around in the latest incarnation van delivering and installing signs to customers across the area and once in a while driving around a golf course or two - or three...

A big thanks to everyone for another TeeRific Year.

Another banner day here. Changed the Nissan store for new owners and had a customer send me a great photo of a previous project he knew I'd made.

After 36 years the jobs are still varied and interesting. Call usually starts with I have a problem and need a sign to fix it.

Thankfully my customers are still "Fall-ing" for my antics.

Autumn's approaching... And is my cheeseburger lunch...

I'm still having antics. Safely. But antics none the less...

Lettered this yesterday. Nice to know I can still climb on windshields to reach those awkward high spots, but it was so hot my water bottle was sweating...

It was nice yesterday and great to be able to see the golf courses open. Healthy social distancing with no carts. Carts seem to change daily around here.

In addition to New York Pause, we seem to be experiencing Winter Pause. While the weather proves winter and summer are 6 hours apart, most golf courses are open now. To be in compliance with NYS, they are only open to members. No carts are allowed yet and everyone is enjoying their golf by walking. Maintenance at the golf courses is allowed, so I am out doing bench and tee sign maintenance (dressed accordingly). I, along with everyone else, look forward to no "Pause".

Sometimes days my job is more fun than others.

Now that the snow is gone ( I hope I didn't jinx myself...), Spring is popping with orders. COVID 19 is making it weirder than usual. Wash hands, no hand shakes, a lot of phone calls and emails and text message proofs, but hey - we got this.Here's a few recent antics...

Well Winter came and went. I was planning on jumping right into the TeeRific Season due to the mild winter... and then COVID 19 arrived. It's all good here. Lots of hand washing and social distancing going on. I'm working with many customers on "Take Out" signs to solve some issues and "Rule Signs" to enter their facilities. I'm still working on getting the golf courses ready as they've been deemed safe. 1 cart - 1 person. I have cart keys so I'll be spending a lot of time by myself updating signs and doing scheduled maintenance on all the TeeRific locations. Be safe. Wash your hands. Practice Social Distancing and Enjoy Your Home and Family. - Tomm

Even though we're enjoying our winter hours, we're still around getting ready for another TeeRific Spring.

This year has been fun and rewarding. As always, I'm thankful for my regular customers and the freedom they give me with my ideas and designs along with the variety of work.It's never the same thing. It keeps me creative. So, here's to a New Year full of health, happiness and clean, readable lettering...
