Great looking Pledge this fine autumn day. Lots of colorful trees in our neighborhood and there's a rake in the shed calling out to me. Ever try to rake one-handed? Perhaps the blower will work better.

Here's a scene from our neighborhood. Picture's a couple years old, but the colors this year are just as magnificent...

Beautiful, Dave!I decided to blow the leaves off the patio with a power washing...The rest in the backyard will make good mulch...in place

I love those great fall colors in your neighborhood! We don't see any red at our place - it's either green year round, or slightly yellow before turning brown and dropping. Sigh!

We have Live Oak and Cherry Laurel that stay green, and most of our other trees are Honey Locusts, China Berry, (yellow in fall) and some kind of oak that has the large pretty leaves that "should" turn red - but they don't! They turn brown. :(

It sure is pretty in your neighborhood. Thanksgiving time is when our color is at it's peak too. Lots of Chinese Pistashe, Liquid Ambers and Japanese Maples decorating our town.

We don't have any of these tree varieties in our yard, but I am enjoying my neighbor's autumn trees.
