Cooler weather makes management more practical

 


Although October temperatures are  higher than they have been in the past, the weather has moderated enough to attack some invasive exotic plants that have been a chronic problem here that have been unaddressed by anyone else.

The main problems, as I see it, are Brazilian pepper and Cogon grass.

I spent a couple of hours or so Saturday morning in the south tract to attack one of the hot spots. I'll get to the three spots in the north tract in coming weeks.

I have modified my work practices. I'm bringing a chair to sit in to take a break in recognition of the fact that I'm a little older now and don't have the energy I had when I took on this project nearly 20 years ago;. I also brought lots of water.

October arrives; it is colorful

 I'll let the flowers speak for themselves.
