The Garden Party

Feel like Sisyphus

12 years ago

Mowed lawn, ahem mean leaves, yesterday for 2 1/2 hrs. Was gone for most of the day, came home to a still nice and clean backyard. About 15 minutes ago it got windy, it looked like a leaf storm. With 4 different kinds of oaks, I will rake leaves until April, since the last leaves will come down when they new ones come out.

No, no, you might feel like Sisyphus, while raking the seemingly unendig leaves, but he was not a very nice "entity", so don't follow his thoughts.
