I wish neighborhood kids still came around offering to cut grass, rake leaves or shovel snow. Even if they didn’t do the greatest job, it was usually a good deal for both the kid & the home owner. Perhaps if parents these days told their kids that they’d have to EARN the $$$ for their next cell phone, they’d show a little more ambition.
Even though Schulz always intended Patty’s hair to be an orangey-brown, I can’t stop imagining her with blonde hair whenever I see her in a black-and-white strip. I also keep visualizing her chequered dress and hair-bow as being dark green in colour, when it’s really orange. Don’t ask me why! :)
A sample leaf, now that’s a hoot. If I paid a kid to rake, I’d pay him by the bag so if he tired out before finishing the yard then I’d not have to pay full price for a half done yard.
Speaking of a good job it looks like Patty’s dad is a terrible gardener. The last two days we see that both Lucy and Violet have a nice green bush growing at the corner of their houses, but the bush here is pathetic. It looks like it is half dead branches.

You should tape that leaf to the back of your leaf-raker resume!
