The last few years it has snowed before we've gotten the leaves to the street for pickup. Matt brought home the power blower last night and Tracy finished blowing in the dark. This morning he dragged the huge pile from the backyard to the street. It is an amazing pile.
Here's the sad part. There are still leaves on the trees.
Quite a few, in fact.
I can almost smell the autumnal air from these pics - fabulous""

Whoa, THAT is a lot of leaves! I'm so glad I don't have enough trees to create all that mess! haha! Do you just bag them and let trash pick up or do you do something else with them? Or do they just decompose at the side of the street??

Wow that really IS a lot of leaves - I don't think I've ever seen piles like that before!! Gorgeous pictures! We don't bother to rake ours...We have a lot of trees but they are in the various woods on our land and we just let the leaves fall and decompose in there....luckily our lawned areas seem to stay clear...
