What 3+ Hours of Leaf Blowing Gets You

Ryan loves trees. His favorite part of being in Virginia was all the trees. Now we live in a house with a lot of old, mature trees. I didn't think he would still love them after today, but he says he does. He says he can't wait to jump in the pile. By the way, there are still leaves on both sides of the house, on top of all the bushes from blowing them off the roof, the driveway, and the trees. I don't know that we will ever get them gone! We're really not sure if we are going to bag them, burn them, or stare at them and hope they magically remove themselves. Wish we were still in VA where they came by and sucked them out of the street!

The car relocated to the pile so you can have a reference point.

I'd vote for burning, but you'll draw the Fire Dept!

Maybe smaller piles... in a 55-gal (vertical) "barbecue"
