Monday is our garden cuttings pick-up day. On our walk this morning we saw the big scooper truck zip around parked cars picking up huge piles of leaves, branches and other garden trimmings. Across the street from us our neighbors are re-landscaping their gardens, front and back. This is what they cut down and pulled and piled up for this morning's haul-away.
At 8:30 the two trucks rolled down the street to turn all that nice greenery into mulch. The chap who drives the scooper manipulates it as if he were behind the wheel of a very snappy sports car.
He grabs the debris in the claw-like extensions, lifts it up and deposits it into the waiting maw of the compactor.
And there you have it. Clean street. Cleared out garden waiting for a new look.
Tomorrow the street sweeper comes to finish the job, vacuuming up all the remaining dust. Right now the house looks pretty bare. When the new plantings are in I'll show you what the owners decided to do.
