Picture it… the perfect 70-degree afternoon has arrived. The Washington area humidity hasn’t hit yet, and it’s blue skies above.
You can’t wait to fire up the grill and soak up the great outdoors. Then, BAM! You remember your yard is a swamp, the leaves were never removed from last fall, and the patio has been taken over by prehistoric ground cover. Anyone with a yard knows the pain of poor land design, installation, and maintenance.
Enter Pat Moran and Tactical Land Care.
Pat’s on a mission to make your land all that it should be. “Protect the world by caring for the land” is a directive he takes seriously. TLC won’t just simplify and improve your outdoor life. They’ll maximize the sustainability of the natural resources in your area while giving your property the look you’ve always wanted.
With a class A general contractors license, TLC can install patios, decks, permeable hardscapes, and more.
Visit TLC Design to book your consultation. Don’t wait… it’s already close to 70 degrees and who knows what’s living under that ground cover!

Stacey’s approach: “Therapy’s a powerful combination of reflection, support and action. You’ll find sessions are filled with empowerment, compassion, goal setting and a metaphorical shovel to dig deep to find the root of your difficulties and how to move past them.”
Adds Stacey, “As a therapist who works with women, teens, couples and families, I use a personalized style of counseling, tailored to you as an individual. You’re the expert in your life, I’m just here to guide you towards transformation and healing.”
