The Yard

There is a learning curve involved with leaf blowers. I had no idea. I recently inherited one so thought I'd put it to use today after trimming the lantana in the front yard.

The first thing I learned is that some stuff just seems too heavy to actually move.

The second thing I learned is that when the wind is blowing, it's an exercise in futility to try to blow debris into the street.

And thirdly, it's a good thing the next door neighbors are renters and are moving, because a bunch of my "junk" ended up in their yard!!


I still maintain that yard work is best left to men. I think they possess a genetic ability to use power tools.
