On Saturday we were at Willow Springs Woods thinning trees. We had ten fires burning on the last of our days with the Atrium Landscape sawyers, big ones that went all day. Thanks to Ozzie who stayed to the end, to Hannah and her new fire-starting mojo, to the two Kevins and Mike for their unflagging strength, fire chef Doug for keeping things stirred, the FOTFP crew who were killin' it (again), to everyone who came out this day or on previous days and helps us keep moving the line.
Spring is all around us now. Chorus frogs calling at Willow Springs Woods yesterday, sandhill cranes overhead throughout the week.. A year ago yesterday I was on cross-country skis at Spears Woods, having a blast on the north-facing hill on Old Country Lane near 87th Street. What a difference a year - and an el Niño - will make.
Sunday, March 13 is our annual spring party (Palos Potluck) at Sagawau. It's a great chance to catch up on what's going on in restoration in Palos. For more information click on the Schedule page on this site.
