We rarely never did this when I was a kid, the trees in our front garden lost leaves, but my grandmother never really seemed to care. The back garden never lost leaves, just branches. I can see why some people would want to get rid of leaves. Personally, if I had to walk through them, I'd be freaked out by the possibility of spiders or something.
There's this couple that live near where I work, I walk past them daily. They are both out before 7am, raking and sweeping (with a broom, and a dustpan and brush) every single leaf or twig for the whole block surrounding their house. Gutters (which I could understand), footpath (also understandable) and any other area they can. That's insane! I spent the first 6mths I walked past trying to work out if it was maybe their job or something, but I think they're just mental. They've killed the grass! Stupid bastards.
They even sweep out the garden beds and under shrubs.
IIN to think Raking leaves is stupid!!
