    Lots of evergreens. Fair bit of Red Maple, some Poplar, and not a whole lot of Oak.

    The Oak leaves seem to hang on right into the middle of winter, if not longer.
    Still quite a bit of Maple leaves still attached., but not for long.

    Almost knocked my dad out one time when I was a kid, throwing trash out of the pickup at the dump, beaned him in the forhead with a Karo syrup bottle :emb:

    This was good, do you do it for a living? If not, think about writing a book; it would sell well.

    That is the way I was brought up, you didn't stand around when someone else was working; even today I am ready to jump in even if paying.
