Yearly Ritual

One of the reasons we love living where we do are the tall old trees in our front and backyard. But like everything in life, there is a price to all this beauty, and that price is called Fall. Welcome to the joys of home ownership.

This is our backyard, notice the distinct lack of grass. Thanks to my neurotic border collies, I've given up trying to grow it.

26 bags later, and finally all the leaves are gone ... for now.Don't you just love fall?
