After bagging leaves all afternoon yesterday and today, I must say they look so much better on the tree!!!

Don't forget to compost those leaves.

My neighbor has a maple tree. Every fall its leaves blow over to my yard. I want, so bad, to get my blower out and blow them back over to his yard.

Oh, but maple leaves are beautiful!

One of the things I love about teaching preschool is that we get to look at all these things with children as though it were for the first time; bring in leaves from the outside, plant seeds, open a pumpkin... they have so much wonder they just enjoy all of it..

thanks for sharing those pictures.

Makes me kinda envious. All our leaves just turn brown.

We have 5+ acres of mostly trees...all kinds...they are really beautiful right now with all there different colors! I love this time of year, but not the cold weather that's coming.

Actually, I mulch 'em with my mower, then bag 'em and put them on the curb and the city comes by and picks them up ..... along with a bunch of dogwood and other limbs I trimmed back. I'd love to have a place to compost them, but I don't and don't have a garden to use the compost on. They'd be good for it, though, for sure.
