Me vs leaves, round 1

Just a drop in the bucket







Plenty more where those came from

 

More than half of ours are down, and I guess I should get out with the mower and mulch 'em up.
You have a LOT more to do there pretty soon.

 

Nice work

 

I feel your pain. To date I have emptied the 3 bags on this lawn vac system in excess of 150 times from our 1 acre lot containing 22 mature white pine and 6 mature maples. I have a literal mountain of pine needles, pine cones, maple leaves and maple spinners in our compost area. So far 21 hours running time on the mower vac and we still have quite a bit to come down. I am now officially sick of fall clean up.

 

I was sick of the leaves before I even started,, got to do what you got to do but don't have to like it

Some of the rest but that's not all. 3/4 of an acre, trees on all sides

Blower, blows the acorns and Hickory nuts into the edge of the woods too

 

I make damm good money doing leaf cleanups and hauloffs this time of year.

You are lucky you can blow them into the woods. I'd be hitting you up for $75 an hour plus dump fees

 

I wouldn't mind it so bad if I was getting paid
Yeah many people don't have anywhere to blow them to, accept to their neighbor's yard
I have tried a lot of different ways of dealing with them including, with the lawn tractor in a shoot I made blowing them into a little trailer with a hood on, the worst part is having to dump so many times Into the Woods.
I didn't use the Backpack Blower in the back yard today I just blew them toward the edge with the tractor.

 

I knew you were getting anxious to start your annual leaf chores


Make great compost ,
maybe try CL, "Free leaves, you pick up"

Have fun

 

I just love it don'tcha know
That would be about right for Craigslist, like I see all the time big pile of brush and leaves for free

 

I am very happy I only have a little bit of leaves to deal with. And I just shred Em with the mower and keep right on going.

 

Fixed it...

 

Seasoned two weeks

 

You live out in the middle of a field something?
Oh wait, I know, you cut down all the damm trees and burned em up

 

This is the fun way to handle leaves

 

Not many BTU's lasting very long though.........................

 

You know what burns my ars? A 4’ flame!

 

Yeah, we saw that in your last picture...............................

 

That was right before I lit the fire!
