Leaf raking!

I spent about 3 hours yesterday blowing the leaves and raking them onto a tarp to haul away. For as many leaves as we have around here, that was a record. I used the large blower and my wife used the small backpack and the rake around the bushes. Most of the leaves are off the trees now and the few trees that still are hanging on are pretty concentrated so we are almost there for the year. Good feeling.

My brother broke his arm raking leaves last year...he fell out of the tree! Go figure!

Good observation Terry. Some people don't get it!

Sounds like an advertisement to me roofersworld. Did you pay for that ad? Shame on you.

I have numerous flower beds all around the house. I just run over the leaves with a lawnmower with a bagger attached, then spread out the crushed leaves in the flower beds. Then i come back with a tiller and mix it all up. Makes for some great soil to plant in come spring. :)

I really like the blower. It will clean up the leaves and if you work with the wind and the smaller backpack blower you can really move some leaves. I blow them into big ples in the driveway and then take my Bobcat skid loader and push them back into the woods. Very slick way to do it!

:woohoo:
