That's a real good incentive for a little hard work.

wow . . . with my yard, that is NOT a good deal!!! I've got three fully grown maples in my yard that while fantastic in the summer at providing shade, and look great when changing colors, as soon as they start dropping leaves its another story. So far, one tree is empty (thank goodness) but the other two are still in their full fall glory . . . . I can't see even a single blade of grass.

Being a transplant from Minnesota (love the Minnesnowta reference) I feel for you. Move to Florida = no leaves to rake. Most of them just blow away...

Thanks for the childhood flashback of raking leaves in to a pile and then hopping on them. I do not miss the snow.
