Grateful for the Brown Brothers

I was elated to see this sight as I approached my house tonight.

I have too many trees with too many leaves; I've even removed at least seven fruit trees. I dread when the leaves start to fall. It takes me hours to rake them all. Raking leaves is a two-person job and there is one of me.

The other day I asked the boys who mow my lawn if they would be willing to rake my leaves. Mr. J said he would talk to his brothers. Today they came and bagged up all the leaves. SO GRATEFUL. I don't know how much money I owe them, but it will be worth every penny.

Too bad there are still leaves on the walnut tree.

Life is good.
