I recently moved to a new place surrounded by leafy trees and realized I’ll actually have to rake the yard, for the first time in a very long time.

But I also just bought a small leaf blower to clear the driveway after mowing… and you made me realize that it’s… well… a leaf blower. I hope it’s powerful enough, but I bet it’ll still speed things up regardless

Yeah, it should help some. It was taking my wife and I a fair amount of time to clean it all up, every weekend during the fall. Now, I can blow it into a huge pile in about 15-20 minutes. Then I can mulch it, add it to the compost, or just send it to the yard debris container. It was a bit pricey, but has saved me countless hours.

I have this one. It’s hurricane force when turned up all the way. never had a problem pushing anything with it.

I also recently bought an electric hedge trimmer, which I love. Should have bought one years ago, it saves so much time compared to hand clippers.
