Hi Barry - I understand your frustration. Here is the problem from another side. I have three huge Maple trees in my front yard. I have people come each week to cut the grass and clear the fallen leaves and I clear them in between their visits. The stormy weather we had this weekend blew tons of leaves off the trees and all over not only my yard but all the neighbours as well. Yesterday I collected 12 bags of leaves but that was only a small amount of what is there. My driveway alone took six bags! Hopefully my garden guys will come today and clear the rest. I feel badly for my neighbors but what else can I do?
