They came swooping down the hillside across the street from the lab...For some crazy reason it initially got me thinking of Uncle Neil's ten million dune buggies coming down the mountain line, if you get my apocalyptic drift...
DS - I actually really enjoy raking leaves - it puts you in a bit of a zen state..I get into the same kinda/sorta state loading micro-pipette tip racks! ____________ Anon-Above--
Hmmmm....hadn't thought of that one...It sure would be fun to watch the gigantic leaf bag on their backs inflate until they started bouncing off each other like feather-light sumo wrestlers unless, of course, the leaves were wet. __________ JP-- Out here on Lotusland's pointiest grey point we are very proud that all of our blowers are electrified...So, less stinky but still ridiculously loud, which was the other thing that was apocalyptic about this gang as it came down the hill.
Gosh - I hadn't thought of that. That is a little terrifying for those folks who are just doing their jobs.
Somewhat tangentially...Despite the fact that we bought a good one with my wife's e-bike, we're still very careful to only charge it out in the garage (we had a bit of back and forth about this stuff awhile back with my brother the fire personage).
Another day at the Universal Blower Corporation!

DeleteWell, you know how it is out here on the pointes of grey points - no leaves, ever!
Reminiscent of a Justin Trudeau speech.

I hope they aren't lithium packs. I would hate to see any workers go up in flames!
