What’s Up?
What do you know! We finally got rain on Tuesday morning! It was fantastic! After being so dried it started with strong wind, bringing dark clouds loaded with cold water and then it rained buckets! Luckily I picked all leaves from my lawn the day before. Yeah!! This year, instead of raking leaves I set my lawn mower on high blade and used the bag, that way it creates a vacuum sucking all leaves getting mulched into the bag. It works beautifully! I got compliments for that task. It tales very little time vs. raking and bagging, that kills my lower back. Lucy couldn’t believe that I finished so quickly!
Not bad at All!

How clever was that, congratulations on beating the weather!
Thank you Susan! 🙂
My husband has recently started using the mower to get rid of the leaves; it’s so easy and quick! Well done for getting it done before the rain came! Hooray! You got rain!
Thank you Clare! Husbands sometimes have good ideas…no? 🙂
They do! 🙂
I enjoyed all your photos here, HJ, each bird so busy with their task. The thrasher, busy thinking, looks so stately.
Thank you Jet! Thrasher, stately…Unintended pun? 🙂
Good lawn work, nice shots.
