When I bought my new house, the large trees on the property were a huge selling point for me. I like trees :)
Now it's fall and I'm not so sure. Last week I raked and bagged enough leaves to fill 6 large yard waste bags. This week I am up to 14 bags, but I still have my front lawn to do ... again:( There is easily another 6 bags to go
I do have a couple of fairly large compost bins, but they can't even begin to handle this amount of leaves. I can't burn them due to city bylaw. Fortunately, the city does yard waste pickup every few weeks.
The only good news for me is that my big maple trees are about 90% naked.
Now let us all rant and swear about raking up leaves.
is my new favourite emoticon, and should be added to the LL emoticon database right now. Look at how angry that guy is.
