Well now fellas I have a 50 plus foot Water Maple in the front yard by the driveway. A ancient Redbud on the other side and two mature Ash trees. Neighbor has a monster Tulip Poplar and Bradford Pears two of them and he lives slightly North of West from me and has never even heard of a rake in his entire life. Wind gives his all to me.

Oh now the back yard, surrounded by woods on basically two sides and in the yard itself a ''no kidding'' 60 foot plus Sycamore with leaves bigger then John Kerry's head. One of them will litterally stop up a gutter if turned sideways. A Walnut tree, two more Ash trees a mature Cherry tree and well......................ok I'll stop you get the picture.

I Win......................LOL....

Bigger than John Kerry's head? Dang.

Shoulda kept my big 'keyboard' shut.

You boys stop whining about a few leaves, I've got 2 full grown River Birches right up next to the back of my house, and a Bradford Pear over part of the concrete back patio. Right about this time of year I fantasize about hunting down the former owners and doing bad things to them.

Bradford pears are pretty in the Spring and Fall but man they are soft. Had a few at the old house and they split more than once but always grew back and filled out well.

Yeah, they're like outboard motors. Not a matter of if they're going to break...it's a matter of when.
