I started my process last year and I remember reading somewhere that you have 5 years to finish from the time of your first exam.

Check with your State…they are all different.  But don’t delay, finish the exam and get it over with, I had to repeat a section because I waited too long.  

I’m glad it looks like it will work out for you.
I have not had problems with crossing lines. I’m not sure what you are running into with that.

I have just purchased the Disto S910 & am very pleased with it. I haven’t used it for an actual project yet but have had a play around with it. It seems to be very quick & easy to use. The screen is a little difficult to see in bright sunlight (much like a mobile phone screen in sunlight) but its not too bad. I downloaded the measurements in DXF…[Read more]

Maybe it is Stretlitzia nicholai?

Thanks Bob! I have had my own business creating bespoke, hand-blown terrariums; indoor plants; and green walls for the past eight years. I’m guessing this might not be enough for an LA job? I will contact some firms.

I wouldn’t think there would be a second thought as you work with at least three people I know, Shannon Stark, Emily Rogers and Lesley Conroy, who I believe are currently using it at your firm! They like Stephen and you neighbor down the street, The Landscape Architecture Bureau, have had great success transitioning and using Landmark.

I don’t understand this at all. This is a website for Landscape Architects. The original poster states that she is a professional, makes a few comments on other threads, and then posts this homeowner in search of help thread.
…. with a link in it. Not looking for websites hits by any chance?
