Never Again
Will I fish to much and not rake my lawn in the fall, OMG what a nightmare.
There is like 4 times as much crap on my lawn than last year
What happened to kids that mowed lawns and raked up leaves in the spare time to get some money to buy a bike or something. When I was a kid that is all I did is hustle for money
Times have changed, Lazy fat as video game playing shut ins

No we have very few leaves, we have pine needles buy the bail, I do have a blower but I like to dethatch it as I rake it
there are so many that my lawn is rust colored. also they are deep into the grass and the grass is packed down from 4 feet of snow on it all winter.

pine needles
are there allot of them in your area?
they make excellent mulch for strawberry beds...
because they are acidic and straw berry's need an acid soil
you could place an add on Craig's list free section
for free straw berry beds mulch
all the pine needles you want...
and see if you get any response
you'll be surprised i'll bet
