Over the past few days I've been busy raking up the leaves that are falling. We have an acre lot with 10+ mature trees on it. The trees are great in summer and provide a lot of shade, but now it seems that they have endless leaves. Raking is a lot of work, so this weekend I plan to mow over the rest of the leaves and mulch them.
After our taste of winter last weekend, I decided that I needed to stock up on everything I'll need to make it through the winter. I ordered a set of Carhartt quilted bib overalls (in pink!) and a pair of snow boots. The boots are rated down to -32 F...Hopefully that will be enough.
Some days I wish that I could go live with my sister in Phoenix where it never snows. What are you doing to prepare for winter?
Let's hope -32 is enough! This is a good reason to live on the prairie where the winds blows and trees don't grow.
