I couldn't do that.  By the time I got them all close to the back fence it would be a pile of leaves 100 feet long, 50 ft wide and 30 ft deep. I pick them up with the lawn mower 4 or 5 times over the fall and dump them in the woods behind my house.

I'm fortunate to have only a handful of trees that drop leaves. 2 are right by my patio and are a pain, but the others are either the back of the property by the woods or next the road and the township sucks most of them up. 

Also the back of my property is woods and a 10ft drop, so everything just gets blown down the hill.

    Just got back from my mother's oncologist. They're really happy with the results of her latest CT Scan. All of the cancer has reduced a little. So a really good report. 

  • Proud of this girl.  Eleventy billion push ups, sit ups, squats, mountain climbers, jumping jacks, planks, combinations, self defenses and weapon katas later in the cold and wind she earned her black

  • I was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer in November. They removed my thyroid gland right before Thanksgiving. Post surgical blood test showed a thyroid globulin number of a 6, which is above the threshold

I'm glad I live on a farm.  The leaves in my yard end up across the field with the first winter wind.

I just run the lawn mower over them. I never pick them up

I wish that was an option.  I have too many mature trees on a small plot.  And no time to mow multiple times a week to keep up with the leaves.  I tried last week and one pass filled up the bag.

Don't put the bag on the mower. Take it off and multch it

You underestimate the amount of leaves I have to deal with.

I'm not sure if I have to deal with as much leaves as you do. I have 3 trees in the front of my house. When they started falling I would run my lawn mower over them twice a week until the leaves were done falling

It'll give me a nice scenery when I'm taking a dump in the middle of the garden

3 mature maple trees and 2 mature oaks (plus one more oak right on the property line, but mostly on the neighbors side).  So basically 6 big trees on .2 acres.

Of course it's a lot. Isn't that what a parcel of land is? :roll:

 

 

 

:meh:

The oaks can’t help their feelings if they like the way they’re made, and they wonder why the maples can’t be happy in their shade.

apparently someone upset him at some point yesterday and he has been requesting to have his account deleted. Mods are sleeping and havent honored his request yet. They must have needed a vacation after suspending 4 guys from the blog last week. 

Im not sure what the issue is that made him want to quit. He seemed to be loving it here the first 2 days, and then yesterday posted that this place "generally sucks", and that we should be more welcoming to noobs.
