Last weekend was beautiful and we decided it was time to get out and work in the yard. We've recently had some strong winds, leaving loads of leaves in our yard. Chad was a little more interested in leaf cleanup when his dad offered him the use of his leaf blower. We thought, for sure this would make things easier, this is afterall what all the landscapers use. While the leaf blower definitely works, it really wasn't making the dent in our workload we had hoped for. Chad went back to using the rake, while I scooped up leaves and put them in garbage bags.
Our neighbor Tom must have been watching and probably secretly giggling at our slow process. Before long he stopped over and offered Chad his riding lawnmower. He gave Chad a brief tutorial and Chad was off. The lawnmover was AMAZING. It picked up leaves so quickly and collected them in a basket. We were both smiling from ear to ear. Tom told us we could use the mower anytime.
Thanks so much Tom for helping us work smarter, not harder!
