It's called spring cleanups which are usually required before the grass starts growing, hence the blowers. Mowers are used to suck up the leaves, not cut the grass at this point.
I'll take the occasional mower/blower noise over the sounds of car horns, sirens, train whistles and loud, overly bass music blasting from cars regardless of the time of day.
If anyone's in the market for a leaf blower I heartily recommend the Red Max brand. My 62cc backpack model is about 20 y/o and still going strong with no issues ever. Just routine maintenance.
Aren't you the guy who has a problem with the smell of wood smoke?
