We have had awesome weather for the past few weeks. Today we got the regular Fall wind. I went out and started sweeping the dead grass that is stuck to the edges of the sidewalk and now the wind is grabbing it and taking it away!. So every hour or so, I go out, sweep the edges and whal la! Clean sidewalk. Now if I could get the dog poop to go!!! We will need VERY strong wind!
Have you gotten your yard fall clean up done? We are slowly working our way through it.

The trick with the dog poop is to find it while it is still soft and put your thumb over the end of your garden hose with the water on high. This creates a high pressure stream of water that will pulverize the poop into fertilizer.

LOL Gotta love that wind when it's blowin' the right direction. I did the final cutting of our yard few days ago, mainly to chop up the leaves. I'll do one more cutting of leaves before taking the deck off the mower for winter wood-hauling. That's when the chains go on the tires as well. Everything is put to bed, otherwise. Just finishing up outdoor chores before winter hits us.
