The last 36 leaves have fallen from the maple tree and it is now time to rake . . . one of my least fav pastimes.

A neighbour said to use the lawnmower to suck up the leaves  into the bag. This made twice as much work for this city girl, all those little leafy pieces! Almost had to use a broom! However the vacuum was very efficient.

My neighbour on Kits Point in Vancouver always matched her lipstick to her gardening headband and runners as she dealt with dirt, grass and leaves.

I called the super!

No super here. However a pair of sparkly runners will make the rest of the tree dump more fun.Still in progress, Summer Storm.

When finished it will be available at Maker Place for collection.

Make it a great day Oliver. We do live in paradise!
