What do you do when there is a 3 foot layer of leaves?


Blow 'em up into a big pile. Jump and play in the pile, recalling one's youth. Then
set 'em afire and enjoy the warmth and the lovely odor. Burning leaves are one of my
favorite smells, a warm reminder that fall is here at last.


Can't stand the smell of burning leaves.
Tree hugger don'tcha know.


a good hot quick burning fire is not the problem. it's the
attempt at burning wet leaves and the one creating a smoldering
smoke screen blanking the neighborhood who creates the smell of
an undesirable mess.
