29 bags of leaves....

[jeffus]

@ 40 pounds each equals?

1160 pounds!

I did math today and it hurt! :D

And we're not even done yet!

Poor Jeffus, hopefully you feel better tomorrow morning. There's a beer in the pub waiting for you from me. LOL

We leave our garage open about 8 inches during the day for the cats to run around out side. Durring the windy days in blows a lot of leaves in the garage. The floor was piled with leaves. After sweeping into a pile it would have taken more then one bag. I got out thr trusty shop vac and sucked up the pile so I can deal with it another day.

That is a true Tim Taylor moment. Although the shop vac should probably have burst into flame, or exploded... :D

Or if you are like me the shop vac would go forgotten for a long time... probably until I notice a an oak tree starting to grow out of it.

We're up to a total of 40 bags. Plus the 9 they just took before we started this weekend.

Grand total = 49 bags. Ouch!

(BTW, I'm using a 5.5 hp Troy-Bilt lawn-vac. First we run over the leaves with the mulching mower, then suck-up the stuff with the lawn-vac.)

And I got a 95' x 35' section left to do. :rolleyes: (Ain't gonna happen today!)

one of the small pleasures of not owning your own place. no shovel, no rake

[sao95]

next year you could always cut down all your trees, then you wouldn't have leaves to bag up :p

[jeffus]

Did that last year! (http://dadstayshome.com/dads/showthread.php?t=870&highlight=leveled)

Page down towards the end. We still got a few more to get rid of.....

I remember those days, when we lived down south I hated raking the leaves. 30 bags of more every year. Now we get a few leaves in the back, the mower takes care of those :)

I bet you can't wait til your daughter get's a few years older and can take on some of the load :)

53 and counting....I'd say I have about 10-15 more to go.
