Clearing access trails at the Tree Farm after this past round of TSI. Trying to kill the volunteer black locust that is invading our prairie reestablishment field project (very tedious and back breaking for a guy with a bad back), finally able to burn our stands of warm season grasses, working on an article or two and trying to enjoy my time in the country.
I wish there was a good way to practice social distancing from ticks!! They are really bad this year (and early!).
