always blow the leaves in the direction of the wind !!!
My dad went in to make an appt for a physical because he hasn't been feeling well, they rushed him to the ER. Turns out he has 3 major blockages and 1 leaking valve in his heart. I came down to see him and my mom before surgery, which has now been cancelled due to his heart being too weak. They said only 25% is working and that major of a repair might hurt it. They live in NC on a few acres of land, leaves everywhere ! I decided to help them out until I left ( coming back for thanksgiving of course ) ... I fired up the leaf blower and cleared the driveway and yard, and it just so happened to be a breezy day. My thought was the left half went that way and the right half went to that side, HA , boy was I wrong ! The first half was blowing with the wind, other side apparently was against. That sucked big time ! I ended up doing it all over again this morning, the whole yard to one side. Much easier.
So, always blow the leaves in the direction of the wind !!!
