Wind and leaves do not mix

Or so I found out today! Tons of leaves raked and piled to be hauled off somewhere at the edge of our 5 acres....Ok so I start on a pile....Put the plastic rake thingy into the pile and bring it up to go in the trailor........Whoosh!!!! Along comes a blast of wind and the leaves become part of the pile again. Ok Ill wait till it dies down, NOW! AS soon as the rake is in the air WHOOSH! This is not funny!!!!!! I swear to you .... no lie here......It took me 5 hours to get the leaves into the trailor and get them hauled away. Actually theres still a small pile or two out there. Im hoping Irv will come home, and feel sorry for my plight, and haul them away...I have nothing left to give to those piles....Nothing.....To bad the wind isnt strong enough to blow them into the next county, but nooooooooooo, cant do that..... I have to admit though...It sure feels good to have them gone.....when there gone....Till next year....Am I nuts???????
