Mikey-Sisyphus: (Stares up at Big Leaf Maples taller than some skyscrapers) Any chance we can stop with these leaves?
Hades: Keep at it and you might get 'em all raked by spring.
Mikey-Sisyphus: Um, there's like four acres of them. An hour or two and I'm wrecked.
Hades: Sucks to be you.

I'm waiting till they are all done fallung...but there might be snow by then..... so it goes, I guess.... 😇
@singlemaltgirl Every year I try to make the planting beds bigger, lay down mulch, mow less. Kinda drop in the ocean level, me doing my own stunts, but yes.
@MikeyM hey hey hey. every bit counts. if we all did that to reduce water consumption, soil erosion, etc. we'd be sooo much better off.
you do your thing!
i just think being eco conscious can have a side benefit here. less work! 🤔 🙄
Cosmic Jr: Do we have any blister patches for hands and can we buy some "big thick padded gloves".
Me: Back in the day, we could rake the back 40 with our bare hands and then wrassle alligators before dinner.
Cosmic Jr: 🙄
Me: Fine. Go buy some new gloves. 😂
@MikeyM if you literally have 4 acres of leaves - or even an 1 acre of leaves, couldn;t you leave most of them where they are? isn't that better for the soil/ground, anyway? & just clear your foot paths & garden as needed?
