Our leaf pile

We don't have any trees in our backyard, but our neighbor does and all of his leaves are blowing into our yard. I'm trying to decide if I should go buy a rake or find a neighbor to borrow from. It seems silly to own a rake if you don't have any trees!

It's actually the perfect situation because our neighbor's tree provides just the right amount of shade for our porch and just the right amount of leaves to play in but let's us leave most of our yard sunny for the garden I'm going to plant next spring. Just as long as the neighbor on the other side doesn't decide to plant a tree!
