At 8:30 this morning, it was showering a rain/snow mix and it was coming down pretty hard so we decided to cancel our work party. As it happened, a mere 40 minutes later, it's no longer raining or snowing. Oh, well.
A week ago (2/19/17), Jim and I walked over to the Arboretum side. We noted that spring is in the air with plants emerging.
At the same time, all the rainfall this month has made the wetlands in the area quite visible.
Back on the Meridian side, we were joined by Gary and the three of us worked along the Trail of Cedars. We also formulated a plan for the damage caused by the fallen poplar on the north side of the trail. We will take out as much creeping buttercup as possible in the area below, cardboard it and then chop up the branches to use as mulch. Gary removed some the easy pieces and placed them elsewhere. I started on the buttercup. The plan was to spend today doing this work but it's now been postponed until next week.
