Today’s b at the world of lawn work. I can take lawn mowers, small lawn tractors, other monsters that cut grass and weeds. Chain saws are okay. Weed eaters. Grinders of things. There is one tool that should be destroyed. Scream if you already heard the sound of the LEAF BLOWER!
I fail to understand why it takes almost two hours to clear whatever leaves there are on a forty by eighty lot, with a house in the middle of it. But, that is less the norm than the ones who continue from noon to dark.
This afternoon was one of the full blown idiots of blow. He had been going on for almost two hours thirty minutes when a storm front approached. High wind warnings (blows leaves about). Heavy rain warning (drowns and floats leaves away). Thunder and lightning (fry your butt). So what did our intrepid leaf blower do?
Yes! He had thunder and lightning bouncing around. The rain came down in sheets. The wind was going wild. Instead of dumping the super high noise leaf blower and climbing in the truck, he kept going after “leaves”. I watched from the dry and safe solarium as he would chase leaves blown in the wind – with the leaf blower screaming. Soaking wet he pursued those wild leaves. No fear of, rather not hearing due to ear muffs, the thunder and lightning strikes.
The fight of the leaf blower is not up to taking on a line of severe thunderstorms.
Idiot
