I hear you there... but what sucks even more in my case is that the neighbors have shown no interest in raking theirs yet, so each time I go out to clear the yard, all of theirs blow in shortly after. I think it is a neighborhood conspiracy against me. Plus, 95% of the leaves in my yard are from my neighbors' trees that hang over the property line. But, looks like this will be the last weekend of raking though for the season.

>Oh I really need the snow this year ... atleast until Christmas (than you can bring back the 80 degree temps )
I bought a 9hp snow blower and both the wife and me have 4 wheel drive trucks ... and I was in a different part of the world last year .

Let it snow , let it snow , let it snow
