Wish I could, but the sheer amount of leaves means that while I raked this weekend, my final raking will probably be in December. The maples have lots of leaves left, and the oaks have only lost about half of theirs. There are hundreds of tiny acorns all over now. The trees produced copious amounts this year. I still get a kick out of the fact that these huge 80 & 100 foot tall trees produce tiny little acorns less than half the size of a regular acorn. But they are a danger underfoot nonetheless.
