community service-aleppo pine removal

The Aleppo pine removal project is done by every one at the camp and has been done by PAC boys for around 2 years. What my group did was we removed some wire fences so that the people could access some big trees next to the side of the road so that they could chop them down and then burn them. Once we had removed the wire from the fence we had to roll it up into loops of wire and dump them into a trailer. While we were doing the fence we got to wear some high visibility clothing which was cool because I really like high visibility clothing because it looks cool. After we had done the fencing we went down the road and chopped down some smaller trees with saws and It was really cool. After that we went to the IGA at Warooka to pick up the bread and milk order and while we were there we got to buy 2 items for ourselves. I bought a bottle of Red Bull and a packet of M&Ms which were all yellow.

    Dad says - Those Aleppo pines are a real pest over there, and over near Port Lincoln and the Mallee lands as well. The pines were brought back from Turkey after WW1 I think - I am pretty certain that the pine tree at Lone Pine on Gallipoli was an Aleppo.

    See you in a couple of days.
