    Leaves = mulch! Healthier for the environment! Little things need it to survive! Biggest amongst them is hedgehogs.

    Bellows… for me… makes me think of Pipe Organs. Kids were encouraged to work the bellows during Church Services.

    This time of year I’d rather be by the blacksmith. Its cold out there. And with the bellows the smith’s fire is putting out a lot of heat.

    Leaves are natural compost. Don’t dispose them.

    I’m surprised the blacksmith didn’t bellow at him for that!

    I’m surprised that with Rodney’s puny arms that he’s able to use the bellows in that fashion!

    I will never understand some people’s obsession with getting every single leaf out of their yard.

    Mother Nature is always up to the challenge of blowing any remaining or errant leaves back to freshly cleared lawns.

    And, thus, the Leaf Blower is born.

    OMG! The woman next door has an absolute fetish about ANYTHING on her driveway. Goes absolutely bonkers if there’s even a stray leaf fragment on it. . .She goes out EVERY DAY to blow tiny fragments off it: I kid you not, yesterday, as I was getting a glass of water, I saw her JUMP OVER THE EDG OF HER DRIVE WAY, DIAGONALLY, into the garage, so she wouldn’t get . . .something. . .on it. She’s gonna go nuts this morning; Hurricane Eta blew through last night, and there’s (very) light debris all over.

    I would recommend Rodney not to tick off the blacksmith.

    Pretty timely – just discussed this yesterday. Was using a leaf blower to “clean my yard” and commented to my buddy: Sure wish they’d have had these things when I was a kid!

    I would like to throttle the inventor of the loud and deafening leaf blower. I watched a neighbor use a blower on a few leaves for hours (the din drove me to drink more of my Chardonnay). I could have raked them up faster. As a kid, one of my chores was to rake the leaves and I did not take as long as those blowers that scatter the leaves all over the place. Don’t you have to rake up the scattered leaves into a pile?
