I hate fall.
I make this pile.
![]() two minutes later i have this ![]() This tree still has most of its leaves, and it won't drop them until the leaf pickup ends, so i will have to bag them. ![]() most other trees in the neighborhood are already all down ![]() Doesn't help that with the position of my house, the leaves and trash from the whole neighborhood blow into my lawn...and stay there. If the wind blows, it just swirls around in one spot due to the shape of my yard.

Beats shoveling snow! At least you can cut the damn tree down.
But seriously, temperature wise fall here in socal (if you can even call it that) is my fav season. Perfect 50-60f. Not too hot, not too cold. Not as much sun, and no allergies from spring. It's the perfect season imo. Fall barely started in socal, and usually it doesn't last. We just don't get the fabulous scenery that the east coast gets. |

The problem is if i wait to long, then the leaves on the lawn get really thick, and the ones one the bottom are always wet.
plus my leaf blower is shitty and i have a bad wrist so i can't rake very effectively. I'm just glad we cut down the 11 pine trees that used to be towering over the house, if there was needles mixed in i'd probably end up paying someone to do it. Not to mention how dark and gloomy those trees made the place.

fuck raking/leaf blowers. i use my leaf blower to dry my car after i wash it. to pick up leaves i put the bagger on the mower. in the back yard, i don't use the bagger, i just grind them up and call it fertilizer. and when i empty the bag, i burn the shit.

My el cheapo father decided not to get a mower with a bag, and now i can't find the bag attachment for our mower because it's such an old mower.

You could get a place of your own, with a friend or two and finish school from there. Its do-able, really. You'd end up missing the leaves though, rent sucks.

in maryland, the trees drop leaves on the lawns
in washington, the trees fall on the cars and houses and power lines everyone in my parents' neighborhood has a generator for the 3 or 4 times the power goes out for day to a week every fall/winter. |
