There's a guy in my neighborhood (who uses a backpack blower) and this is his main hobby. I really don't understand the appeal of doing what is a pretty monotonous task for such a long amount of time, given that in mere hours much of the pristine front yard moves back into "chaos".

I understand the satisfaction from being meticulous about things like this, but i don't understand the extreme end of it.
