It has a strap that is supposed to go over your shoulder, but if the leaves are really large, like these sycamore leaves, you have to occasionally reach down with one hand and help them into the snorkel. You can't reach it if the strap is dragging you back. I am very, very sore today. I had to get into some tight spots with it, and the leaves were really matted down. When I've used it before, I had Mr. Granny keeping the snorkel cleared, which helps a lot.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-38965912309013134082013-03-13T17:32:50.447-07:002013-03-13T17:32:50.447-07:00The way my body felt this morning, snow (or anythi...The way my body felt this morning, snow (or anything that could keep me in bed) might have been a welcome sight! I hope I'm not getting sick again. I'm allergic to pine trees, so you can imagine what it does to me to have to clean them up. I think it's just general body soreness from manhandling that heavy leaf sucker.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-36995266667470679272013-03-13T09:56:55.530-07:002013-03-13T09:56:55.530-07:00Thanks.

But, how I do love to burn them! Love the smell and being outside with rake in hand. The price for the blower is less expensive than I expected. Will go to the nearest Sears store next time I can and check it out.dianefaithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07229979968118248563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-51857729148962701052013-03-13T08:03:13.304-07:002013-03-13T08:03:13.304-07:00You are getting a lot of work done.

On the other hand, I used to have to pick Colorado Potato Beetles from the potato plants, and huge horn worms from the tomatoes. I've seen none of these in recent years.

It just looks so pretty. I've had mine that way a few times this winter, but yesterday the 'girls' kicked all the hay out of Buddy's doghouse and now I can't even see the porch. When it gets above freezing again, I'll have to get out there to clean up. OR... once you get rested up, you could come over and help beautify my place. Your work is all done, right? :)langelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17890043518879123806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-70954868444816351142013-03-12T21:31:51.572-07:002013-03-12T21:31:51.572-07:00Glad you got some help - but next time - get some ...Glad you got some help - but next time - get some sleep first! :D<br /><br />I really like your garden bed cage.
