CLEAN!!!!!

Climbed out the window with the leaf blower and got that crap outta there.

It looked like I was the first to celan them in maybe ten years. There was about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch layer of "dirt" because what was up there had decomposed so much.

My neighbors probably thought I was crazy out there on the roof with the leaf blower but I stayed dry.

Nice work, and good choice on cigar...



If you don't want to get on the roof again, there is a gutter cleaning attatchment available for most leaf blowers, basically a 6' long piece with a "J" at the bottom. Even a short bugger like me can clean the gutters from on the ground.

I like the excitement of using a garden hose to clean gutters though. Sit on the roof (or stand on a ladder) and blow the stuff down the line. For some reason, I still like to play in the water, much to my wife's chagrin, but my daughter's delight. :nodlaugh:

Water was definitely out of the question today...it was 37 degrees.

After what came flying out of those gutters today there is no way I want to be standing below them! :rofl:
