Bye Bye, Leaves

So that giant pile of leaves the girls have been playing in all week?  They were raked on to a tarp to transport to the recycling center, and then it rained for two days.  So tonight we're out trying to get the heavy, wet leaves up into the back of the Tahoe.  As you can see, it's going nowhere fast.
 
 
We took some leaves out, and Mac tried kicking it, still no cigar.
 
 
Brad tried to use his massive strength to lever it up and in.  Nope.
 
 
We ended up taking about half out, finally getting the tarp into the Tahoe, but unfortunately leaking decomposing leaf juice all over the carpet in the back.  I'm told it's a good thing I can't smell anything right now!
 
 
Mimi had some fun watching us heave!

I usually let the wind recycle my leaves to the neighbor's yard. It does require some patience but, it works every year.
