  1. First Friends of the Mountains-to-Sea-Trail workday of 2026 was a massive success! The morning was was right at freezing when we arrived, but we warmed up quickly...

    We moved a big pile of trash a mile out of the woods, up to the road, for the state to pick up. Including a bunch of nasty tires that had been previously pulled out of the river... I carried one that was too busted to roll straight (and probably weighed literally a third of my bodyweight!) and then we got smart and put most of the rest onto the wheelbarrows. 💪🏻🧠

    Not pictured - @mbroome & I also spent a pleasant half-hour pulling invasive Chinese privet along the riverside. Got to play with the [weed wrench](weed-wrench.com/), which is the "no, really, fuck you" solution for plants that are too big to pull by hand, but too small to be worth cut-and-dabbing.

    Note to self: maybe next time don't bother getting up early to squeeze in the usual morning cardio workout. 😁 We hiked ~6 miles just doing the cleanup!
