Michael Kravitsky IV added holiday lighting and decor to Grasshopper Lawn Care's roster of services 14 years ago so that he could keep his employees working all winter long. Also, Kravitsky, who is an avid snowmobiler, was looking for a business thatwould allow him to go to Canada for a couple of weeks after the holiday season."Christmas Decor is great and it's been a great teacher for us," he says. "Everyone thinks that you just buy lights at a Walmart and hang them on your house, but there's a lot you need to know. What's reallynice is that it doesn't pick up till we're almost done with lawn care.

His employees also enjoy it because it's different and lets them work together.
