The only problem I see with your Trac-vac is that you don’t live next door to me!

I’ve lived in my house for 28 years and have only a couple small trees; the neighbors have been in their house for many more years before I moved in and have a couple huge maple trees.

The way my yard sits, leaves blow in and never blow out, so I could have 13 bags of leaves each year. I understand tree law and appreciate having large trees in the neighborhood, so I just rake them up like a big boy.

This year for the first time, the neighbors started blowing the leaves in my yard into piles and may have removed some, but not sure- have no clue why and haven’t run into them yet for information. They may have needed some for their flower beds?

Well, the trees are bare now, so I went out Sunday, raked them up and used my leaf blower set on vac and mulch to fill up only three bags- shredding them really saves bag space- would have been a dozen or so bags otherwise.

Took me a couple hours and then I mowed it one last time with my reel mower- makes a guy happy to have it all done.
