confessions of an anal gardener... (was leaves and winterizing)


Sandy, 

My neighbors think I'm nuts because I vacuum pine needles off my
driveway.  I was soooo sick of trying to sweep the buggers off an
asphalt drive with a push broom, so I got out the old shop vac.  It
works wonders... Now, when I weed next to the sidewalks, or the edge of
the drive, I just vacuum it up.  beeeeeeautiful!

Give it a shot with the leaves... I don't know why it wouldn't work.
WARNING - your neighbors will think you've lost your gourd, but it's
ok... just laugh maniacally while you vacuum, and they'll quit staring
and run back inside... <smirk>

Don't know about the blower aspect of the shop vac, I'm just happy
getting all that mess in one container.
