Leaves!

[shadowgray396]

I have a Pin Oak and it takes until spring before all the leaves come off it. Makes a mess all winter long. Not sure why I ever planted it. It was a 3" tree when I put it in and now it's 18" in diameter.

Sometimes he doesn't put the lift up high enough when working on the cars. Them steel ramps are tough on the old noggin.

We keep the grass cut as short as possible in the fall but it's not enough to blow them all away. Wish I had some woods around to blow them into. The people next door can and the people behind us and Darryl across the street but not us. Blow into piles, rack them onto a tarp and haul them to the back. Did that Friday afternoon and yesterday afternoon, hopefully we can finish today. We've picked them up with the mower but there's so many the bags fill up in a few minutes. Then you might have to drive it 200' around back, dump them then drive 200' back to where you were. Just no easy way to deal with so many leaves.

Hank, give me a second here and I'll run up to the house and see if Kathy has enough time this morning to come down to your place. I'm thinkin she can use her new toy to blow all those leaves into your neighbors yard. Problem solved.

That what it seems like all my neighbors around me do. I pickup more maple leaves out of my yard, then cherry leaves. I don't have a maple in my yard.

My other house had pine trees, I had to pick up lots of pine needles all winter long since they were in my lawn area.

To answer all the PM's that I received on "What was Tony doing when Kathy was cleaning the Hot Rod for the awards"

Well, Tony was signing autographs for his groupies, here is a pic of one of his groupie's getting some money out of her purse to pay for the autograph. The big guy that is standing is Tony's body guard. I took the picture when I went to get him a cold beer and a umbrella to hold over his him like Michael Jackson.



The mess in front of the camera is his pop up tent that was tore down by the mob when he was picked a winner of the award.

I remember that day well Ric. You brought me a warm beer and took too long to get the umbrella, as I got a tinge of a sun-burn waiting for you. I may have to re-think your position as Chairman of the fan-club. And speaking of that, when are you going to release the financial statements for all the donations that you took in?

Still waiting Tony, guess Kathy was busy or that 212mph blower blew Kathy away. You did get her some ankle weights didn't you? She's a pretty small lady, hate to see her go scooting across the yard backwards when she fires that thing up.
