My husband will eventually rake/mow them, but it's an endless job. The trees dropped them late this year, so it's worse. Of course the trees dropping those leaves are all in the neighbor's yard, and he won't rake a thing. So we're not in a hurry, knowing that his will keep blowing over this way.
The neighbor on the other side has a couple of giant oak trees. Those suckers won't completely drop until January or February. Not very fun raking that time.
But I will say that for a couple weeks in the fall, our street is absolutely glorious!
