I love anything with Pumpkin, so Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. I love a brisk morning and a sunny afternoon. I love the smell of a good Pumpkin bread. I love the colors of the leaves on the tree, but today as I pulled into my driveway, a sudden fear gripped me!
LEAVES! Everywhere. So many still in the trees. Lots on the ground. There are enough leaves that I can’t ignore it. I have to do something about it. For the past 8 years I have had a work day at the house. It’s always a brisk, but sunny day. The purpose is to gather as many people as I can….to spend 4 hours raking and hauling and bagging and trimming. It is a HUGE project, but there is something so fun about seeing the yard ‘clean’.
For now, I will watch the leaves fall and wait for the ‘crew’ to arrive in a few weeks to help me rake and rake and rake.
Who takes care of your fall yard work?

Oh I remember the days of apartment dwelling when someone cut the lawn, watered the plants, shoveled the snow off the walks–and then I bought a house!

Wanna say way too that I remember the days of apartment dwelling when an individual reduce the lawn, watered the crops, shoveled the snow off the walks–and then I purchased a home!

Every morning, I make sure that I can compile those falling leaves in our lawn. It’s better to clean it everyday than to wait for the weekend. I do decomposting in our backyard, and I made those leaves as fertilizer for our garden. Isn’t it useful?
