From raking leaves. Not easy when you don't exercise for years and then have to tackle a half of an acre of yard. With help, but still... The fact remains that I'm sorrrrrrrrrrre.

Not that the poll has anything to do with that, but what did you expect? ;/

I prefer not to mess with how nature operates. So I chose the never, leave it alone as it should be.

I tend to deal with the leaves on occasion to prevent build up on driveways, the lawn, and such and to help out the 'flower' beds by giving them free mulch. I usually also end up raking up leaves before the rain comes in, to make things nine times more difficult.

Raking is for the birds! Which begs the question, why don't we have birds raking our leaves for us? Get on that, Harvard!

Pumpkin Pie!

Autumn cause it's not too cold, and raking is good excercise.

I like in an apartment building. Which means leaves are other people's problem, but not mine. No raking- or sidewalk-shoveling- for me....

You rake leaves in autumn! AUTUMN!!

(Snaps the pointer over his knee)
Get outside and rake those leaves! GO, GO, GO!!

I'll use a leaf-blower rather than rake the leaves, Snow Dragon. Just to spite you. :P
