Saturday

The first falling leaves once they’ve covered the ground a bit .
But a huge batch falls later and those I’ll blow into a widespread pile that I leave to house the bugs , moths , spiders and butterflies over the winter. Then it mulches down to nothing .

Don’t get pickups here so it’s all mine forever. 🫤
Toro self propelled GTS mower and Toro electric blower I picked up last yr on sale , added Toro string trimmer with interchangeable batteries .
No banana for scale.
