On Thursday and Friday I thought I looked well enough, and felt fit enough, to undertake what I had promised to do this week: Triabunna Plants Trees - a school project with assistance from council and Friends of Triabunna Reserves.
This morning Jill PD and I strolled past for some quality monitoring. You can see the new planting area ahead on the left side of the track.
We're using mesh tree guards, which can be re-used and don't break down into plastic flakes (we hope).
Here you can see previous years' plantings. Usually this is our National Tree Day event.
Here you can see the adjacent remnant native vegetation that we are trying to emulate
and a small dog waiting patiently in front of the RSL's container storage shed.

This beautiful patch of remnant vegetation used to be the BMX track back in the day. It has recently been re-discovered by kids on mountain bikes, which is wonderful at one level but I'm getting a bit concerned at the widening tracks.
And then to The Gatehouse to do our job. The chain was running with condensation / dew and looked and sounded very lovely - not quite captured in the photo.
