Fall Yard Cleanup

It's truly amazing just how many leaves you can rake up in a lot that's only 0.1 acre.  I suspect that the hedges around the edge of our back "yard" form a nice leaf-catcher.

Here's the product of two Sundays' worth of raking and bagging:

12 bags full!

It's kind of funny how we do this every year in this part of the country, and we're just accustomed to having to do it.  And interesting to feel obliged to do your part in a neighborhood!  I have fond memories of jumping in piles of leaves as a kid, and I'm glad we'll have enough yard and no shortage of leaves for our kids to jump in.

Here's a shot of the front of the house, post raking:
