Way to go with the vacuum! We had "yard waste" pickup today at 8:00 a.m. and I had to get up and battle the tomato plants at 7:30, cut the strings holding them to the fence and yank them up by the roots and try to cram them into a couple garbage bags (just in time; the pickup guys came by my house only about 15 minutes after I "finished". I'll have to gradually put the rest of the stuff I wanted carted off in the regular garbage if I can, a little each pickup so they don't get pissed and refuse to take them.
