We don’t need your stinking gas-powered leaf blowers

With autumn just one week away, it’s natural to focus on our most cherished thoughts of the season. Like why did our neighbor decide that 7 a.m. on a weekend morning was a good time to start up his gas-powered leaf blower and start blasting away in his front lawn? Wait, does that sound angry? We didn’t mean to come across as annoyed. Or maybe we did. It’s just hard to think straight with all that awful racket waking up the neighborhood.
