I Quit

Mary, my back is killing me! I spotted this elderly couple wrapping up what looked like a massive job of gathering leaves.

Such a shame. Those leaves are supposed to keep the grass protected all winter long!

Great find and shot of the labor though! His stance says it all!

[Cathy Misze]

This old couple reminds me of my mom and her friend. She works that poor old gent almost to death. He keeps going because she won't stop. LOL

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Hard job! But I bet the leaf blower makes it a little easier! Good catch Rick!

[Mrs. Smith]

It's not easy....and this would make my back ache too!

[Caren]

Great candid! That's what teenagers are for...you pay them and they do all the work.

[Kerri]

Great shot

[Pam Hawkes]

Good capture of everyday toils Rick! He truly looks like he is suffering.

[Nancy Holte]

Hmm . . I seem to recognize that pose. Have used it a few times myself.

[GPix]

I feel like that from time to time now. The old body just ain't what it used to was!!! Well taken

[Dione Giorgio]

Hope they don't get gusts of wind while they finish the job. He does look as if he's tired. Lovely capture.

[Pat Knowles]

A hard job & something we don't bother with any more! Good capture!!! I agree with @katy.

[jerry plume]

Lol! Love your description!

[Dorrena Ortega]

Ugh! As much as it hurts, it hurts more to do nothing.

[Kd Wallis]

yup, looks like he is going to have a sore back! i know how that is :S Nice shot and funny words to go with it :)

[Constance Brinkley]

What a great shot. Well captured.

Us elderly have to be very careful not to overdo it. nice candid shot Rick.
