Tools

 
Small tools are handy, big tools give you leverage.
Sharp tools are dangerous, but..

Bring at least one tool and consider tying a bright ribbon on it.
Do what you can with the tool you have and work out what tools to also bring next week.

Springing back  We have inserted an experimental Swamp Banksia into Manifest Destiny and there are still 4 or 5 other sapling trees needing protection so if anyone has some spare garden stakes/posts, we still have enough wire to fence them.  On offer: Velcro plant has reappeared beside cycleway, up near the bend creek edge & back of beach have junk deposits from our throw-away society some minor Turkey Rhubarb, Asparagus & Passionfruit growth along creek edge The full weed range on offer in Manifest Destiny with conditions ideal for extraction & some fallen timber cutting up for the sawyers a check along Stony Road & Woodlands Ck   2022   There has been further Deer damage, done this time to three native Hibiscus - they need a protective guard- and we lost an Illawarra Flame and a Bleeding Heart just across the ditch on Lisa's Site. Cut them off below damage and they may re-shoot.

Offerings for tomorrow: trim most branches from the fallen Banksia on the dirt track in the hope that the tree can survive horizontally repair/rescue/protect a line of deer victims along our track at the creek bend & check our existing protections creek level has dropped so we can get onto Lisa's site , remove rubbish, drag flood wrack off Crinums & bag any Madeira remove the big Asparagus & lay the rest of the cardboard in Manifest Destiny & continue weeding as per last week fish bike out of creek near the bridge. Bikers may care to inspect & add to their collections check SPATE site for continued occupation.  If vacated there are 2 fallen Banksias in t...

Why Would Anyone Plan?   We are switching tomorrow's work action to Flanagans Ck, or Tingara Park as its officially known. Forecast is for some possible light morning showers, so rain gear advisable.  At Flanagans tomorrow we'll continue to weed our way south. There may be a rubbish patrol along the back of the beach. I'll bring extra bags again. Choppers /sawyers could cut some of last weeks cuttings into more mulch friendly sizes. 2024 A Diminished Thing Tomorrow begins a new era for our group with our work restricted to areas west of the cycleway. I will produce a full explanation of these changes later in the week. A reminder that our 10th Annual Foundation Picnic is set for Monday 26th August. The waves & tides of the last week have dammed Hewitts Creek & filled it, the shoreline & beyond with sea-wrack so removal of plastic, treated timber & general rubbish will be first task tomorrow. Hoes & metal rakes will be useful in returning these deposits ...
