Had a perfect burn day yesterday. Good wind and dry. Got some of the wild area burned and cleaned. It had gown up with mostly cockle burs amongst the native trees I've let grow.

A lot of my neighbors ignore the burn day guidelines.
I don't want to get a Nasty-gram from the state or County about burning on non-burn days.
I have a tree that is covered with dead dry wild grape. Thinking about how to remove the wild grape. Guess I'll just do it on a wetter day, with a running hose nearby, and hope that the fire doesn't climb into the tree-tops.

Illinois says we can burn landscape waste, I'm rural so no other authority.
I too have a huge wild grape vine up in a evergreen bunch I have. Was going to cut it at the base an apply some stump stop next week before it leafs out. Then just leave the vine to the weather.

For me it's a full time job, but one I don't have enough time for. So it just gets gnarlier.

It is what I do being retired. About 2 acers. Getting ready to start transplanting willows and redwoods. I have about 8-3 year old Dawn redwoods. They are identical to the Cyprus tree but grow 10x faster. Started them from seed. The willows I just cut off branches and stick in the ground usually. But this year I sprouted them in the house in a bucket of dirt. Have to wait until the trees start to leaf out.
Did another burn today. Should be it.

I have one neighbor that seems to spend most of his time stripping ALL the leaves - ALL the pine needles.
Not just the sticks. EVERYTHING on the ground, on about 15 acres. Like Seinfeld "clean freak" attitude.
VERY BAD place to be an earthworm or a bug.
Of course it doesn't leave the birds with much to eat.
He says he "just likes the way it looks" and that it has nothing to do with wildfire.
So his property is like an old growth forest, but on the ground, it's like a desert.
I go halfway, and remove the sticks.
Also I rake all the leaves away from the bigger logs on the ground, so that the ground is completely bare around the large fuel sources.
Them you do not want to catch on fire.

Where I live gets flooded about ever 5 years. If the water gets high enough my house turns into an island with the river flowing though the yard.
Last great flood we had left 4" of black sandy loam on top of where I raked it clean this time. Our dirt in this area has it's own name and is quite prized for farming. Black as coal and some clay. Came from eons of hardwood trees after a huge glacier dam bursts and scoured out the rock, deposited 100s of feet of sand in some places. Go 15 miles north and you are lucky to have 3 feet of soil over the sandstone.
