Dog Days of August: Stella’s Best Leaf Jumps of All Time

This video makes me regret having never lived in a place with enough leaves to do this.  One of the best short videos I’ve ever seen. I watched it four times! Joyful.

        Yes, it sure was, Judy! When I was a kid, you could still burn leaves outside after all the “playing in them” was done. I can still see my father standing alongside the road with those low piles of leaves, and I can smell that lovely autumn aroma of the leaves mixed with smoke.

            In some cities they may still bag them. In one of the places I lived most recently, you piled them alongside the road and the city/county? came by with large trucks that had attachments like huge vacuum cleaners and sucked them up into the truck. Not sure where they took them.
