I do now. I have too or I'd be getting phone calls.
When I was out in the country, the final few mowings took care of the leaves. Didn't have many to begin with.
The yard is too small now for a rider and I'm not spending $2 grand on something just to use once or twice in the fall. I use a leaf blower, then suck them up into the leaf blower to mulch them, load it into bags, then load all the bags into my hatchback to take them where we're suppose to dump them. 2 biggest problems is loading freakin leaves into my car as it's a hatchback and taking my car, just regular old car, onto the muddy trail to get back to the leaf dump point.
Haven't touched a leaf yet this year because of either rain or had other things to do on the only weekend we haven't had rain. Good thing is, the trees are bare so I'll only be doing cleanup once this year, which will happen tomorrow.
