Been There, Done That: The last of the leaf blowing

Been There, Done That: The last of the leaf blowing

- Laura Nethken

Thankfully, leaf season is pretty well over for this year. The only thing we’re still playing with is the tree in front of our garage. It hasn’t completely changed yet. It didn’t even start turning until the beginning of November. The rest of them are all done. Yay.

I didn’t touch a single leaf last year and I really had no intention of it this year, either. Then I took a half day off work on a rare sunny and 75 fall day and kind of got in the mood to play with some leaves. When I get a notion like that, I’ve got to run with it, they don’t happen often.
