Looks like that will keep you busy for awhile. Imagine going to be a never ending job.

I would rather pick up those leaves once a year than pick up after the dogs every day!!!:) :)

Screw that. Here in San Diego the wind, fires and floods usually keep those pesky leaves under control. Just chop down the tree and you will be in good shape.

You can cut all the trees down within a block...you'll still get more than you wanted. Screw raking them...mulching mower!!! Does wonders for dog shit too. :D

That is nothing AmatoSanger, I own a landscape co. here in Sacramento and we do some big apartment complexes. We get to do that everyday from Oct. thru the end of Dec. Granted, I don't use a rake and my guys are the ones who have to pick up all debri.......but I have had my fair share of that junk:D

I will take the trees. The rocks just don't do it for me in the summer.

I take it you don't have kids, or you got stuck with the lazy S.O.B's that will call protective services on your ass if you try to make them do something.

Consider yourself lucky.
I have more than that just on my driveway and I cleaned all of it before Thanksgiving.

Outside of California, we can legally use our kids for labor, and the neighbors kids too...CHEAP. :D

Not bad, but I'll trade you 10 times over for doing mine. We haul PU loads to the burn pile out in the field for about a week, then start over.
Got a 15 year old who ain't worth killing, he goes for about 10 minutes and he's "tired".

Yea, but how much for the lawn mower?

Included in the price. The crew is like 20 guys.. They do the the front and backyards on the entire street(30 homes) in about 2 hours. And for $60 they come every Tuesday. I don't think they can be beat.

Well I'm done with those pesky leaves till next year, just got back from the local leaf dump site. Won't be long and I'll have to deal with that other pain in the a$$ around here called SNOW and lot's of it. :D Must be nice to live in a warmer climate.

I use my mower and suck them every week. That way there's no raking, unless they all drop at once. :rolleyes:

amato: I was visiting West Michigan about 2 months ago, doing a small on the water boat show at Grand Haven I think it was called and the locals
there were complaining about the weather going to get cold etc. I asked
them this question--why don't you leave? Noone had a good answer!
Now I know that your parents place here in Havasu by my house has some
extra bedrooms in it. So get in the truck, sell everything except the boats
and come enjoy paradise!
By the way, Mr. Amato also has a blown injected fire shootin little jet boat
here in Havasu. I thought my Schiada loped real hard until I heard Amatos
boat! Wow!
Great videos too! Come see us soon.

I'll be out there soon Keith, I'm anxious to get out on the river again with the toys. Ya know with the economy as bad as it is here in MI, I have been thinking about moving out there, just gotta convince the wife.:D Oh yeah and I'll need to find a good job somewhere, maybe at a local boat manufacturer. :idea: I've got skills....no really I do
