One useful effect of the fall’s drought was the impact it has had on the ehrharta grass plague in the park. We were able to virtually mop up all the ehrharta in our primary work areas and push into the tangles of native blackberry in the lower portions of the NW slope.

The current rains have been extraordinarily well-timed, though. All of our plantings this year are doing spectacularly. The strawberry in particular appears poised to cover well along the path.

Of course, off-leash dogs remain a persistent problem. It appears that some of the neighbors along Shangri-La simply let their dogs out of their houses in order to run down to the dog latrine, er, park. From the size of the shit-piles, these are not small dogs.
