Paddock Woods Saturday April 4
This weekend there were no bans on brush pile burns, though Saturday's rain was a bit of a confounder. in getting fires going. Fire #1 needed some love after break time to get it cooking, and fire #2 was still obstinate at 1:00 pm when your correspondent had to leave.
Contractors did brush mowing here recently and volunteers were expanding on their work, as well as knocking down a lot of smaller honeysuckles the brush-mower could not reach due to deadfall.
McClaughrey Springs Woods Sunday April 5
Had to skip this one prep for family brunch, but mostly to sample deviled eggs soon as they were made. Sunday was a much better day, with no rain and enough afternoon sun to get a small basketball game going on the driveway.
Meanwhile, back in the woods: Joy reported a good workday, and left one picture, seen below. It was a small volunteer group, given the holiday, and included our regional ecologist Kristin Pink. I trust fire-starting was not as problematic as one day prior.
