Leaf Clean Up

We love the big  maple tree at our river property when it gives us nice shade in the summer. However, come Fall it is nothing but work.

 It took Skeet, Jan, Ron and I several hours to get the leaves all raked up.

Whew, what a job!

 We did get a couple sets of the "Garden Claws" and they worked so well. While Jan and I raked, the boys picked up big bunches of leaves to put in the back of the truck. When the truck was full they took it to the compost pile and then we started all over again.

 Almost finished

 Another project on the new lot for this trip. Ron is putting in a little fill and getting ready to put some boards down before we spread the new gravel.

 Skeet and Ron are putting new gutters on the garden shed. This should keep the mud from splashing up on the bottom.
