Doris came around 1:00 pm, all excited and exhuberant about the surfing lesson. It is hard to keep a good woman down to earth.
We had only two hours to work today, so we went straight out, and we were joined by Elaine, who gathered all the discarded bottles and cans. She could not get over the fact that she was able to fill a full bag. What can one say. Doris worked the waterside and I took on the section around the electrical pole. Much crabgrass (90%), it grows really tall, at the base you grab the root and try to get some of that out. It is really funny how these type of plants seem to send a message to the roots, you shake and pull it and then let it go. When you try again in about fifteen minutes a lot of root just seems to have unstuck itself and it comes right out.
There were clouds, but no rain, and we got a lot done. As I went out on Sunday, I just caught the park sanitation dumping the lot in the truck. That makes it nice for the rest of the week and it will not encourage dumping as was done last week.
