@TwiHusband Gonna have to pull out the ladder to get further up, but I've filled my recycling bin, so that'll have to wait until next weekend.

@LiberalLibrarian My turn tomorrow. I bought an enormous "tow-behind" lawn rake. All I have to do is jerry-rig something (a rope very likely) that will allow me to dump a full bin without leaving the mower seat. Megatons of pine needles, here I come.
