  3. She missed a bit ... a big green bag behind her!

    God bless you, Bill. You take such wonderful photos.

  5. Hello, I am always out sweeping up the leftover bird seeds. Nice to see another sweeper. Take care! Enjoy your day, have a great new week!

  7. So nice to see! When at work on 5th floor and men get the leaves aside with those noisy machines... awful.
    I always thought I go down, get a broom and do the job myself, so the others can concentrate on their job, cause I can not - windows closed!
    To sane people!

  8. I have a sweeping neighbor also. She doesn't come as far as my steps though. And strangly enough she walks directly across the grass rather than going around on the sidewalk a few extra steps when she's going to visit her friend. I love knowing trivia like that about my neighbors.

  11. What a great photo. I was reminded of the street I grew up on. All the people along the street did this to keep the sidewalk out front clean.

  13. This photo brought back wonderful memories of my mom sweeping the sidewalk in front of our house when I was a kid...many years ago ;)

  14. I have to admit that I am a sweeper too. It gives such a sense of accomplishment to tidy up the sidewalk!

  16. Not only is she keeping the sidewalk cleared, but also getting some outdoor time and both are important these days.

  17. Muito bem, gosto de varrer também!
    Todo cuidado é preciso.

  18. And I like the way she's using a broom instead of a leaf blower.

  19. It looks like a well worn broom.
