Especially gas powered ones. If you are going to blow refuse in the street, can’t you at least do it quietly?

    I have lived in suburbs, subdivisions, and city neighborhoods with green space. People (or their landscapers) use leaf blowers in all of them.

      Maybe I don’t notice because I’m in the deepest South. Trees don’t dump all at once, it’s a gradual thing from fall through spring. All I ever see is landscapers doing a quick blow down after mowing.

      Also, we’re not so much into appearances down here, not like other places I’ve lived. Your yard doesn’t have to be perfect.
