Tidying Up the Van and Trail Work In the Woods

Tidying up the van

I thought I better have a look at my solar panels to see how dirty they where. They served me well on the trip and I never bothered to check them.

They do look a bit dirty, so I’ll put them on the list for cleaning soon.

I spent part of the day taking stuff out of the van and doing some cleaning. It was fairly dusty inside so I got the air compressor going and started blowing things out. What a dust cloud that made. There was more dust in there than I thought.

Loquat tree

I trimmed all the suckers off this loquat tree as it was getting hard to get around it. I did get the brush picked up just before dark.

Trail work

Around three, I rode the dirt bike up into the woods where I’ve been working on a trail. A slide blocked the road a long time ago and now I’m making a trail over the slide to get by.

I parked here just below the slide to work on it.

I need a trail over this slide to get by.

I worked on it until about six and got most of it done. Just a little more and I should be able to cross the slide.

I try to make the trail wide enough for my quad runner as it’s usually the machine I use to haul tools and stuff around in the hills to work on stuff.

Here’s the new trail where I parked the bike, but it’s not quite passible yet.

All that work gave me some good exercise and really wore me out.

Nice day.
