North Carolina leaves

North Carolina has a lot of really tall trees, which results in a lot of leaves in the fall.  The city provides a fall leaf service to help manage the volume.  The leaves need to be collected in the front of the house and then on 2 days in the fall/winter season they come by with a truck that sucks them up with a big tube.  There were many days used to collect the leaves from the back yard to the front.  Matt used a tarp to move them.  The pile of leaves was a great place for the kids to play.  Brayden jumped in the pile one day with his flip flops.  He ended up loosing one of them in the pile and there was no way we were going to find it.
