" I was pleased with how well they worked at redoing the rock Special to the DN The Sacramento River Albertson Training Center edges of the trails around the "old Oak tree." They have accomplished a variety of jobs: raking, pulling weeds, clearing picnic table areas, digging up large root balls of weeds, distributing wood chips into cleared areas, hauling brush and tree limbs. Everything they do –they do with a smile. They are a wonderful group of young people and we are very happy that Red Bluff High makes it possible for them to assist us on a regu- lar basis."

Now is the time to complete this task. Once the soil dries, they are much harder to remove. Also note any over- crowding among your emerging perennials. This is a good time to divide and replant while the weather remains cool and the rains prevail. Any extras can be potted up, transplant- ed or given to friends.

Know that during our sometimes wacky spring weather and despite our lack of attention and care, most of our early risers are hardy enough to somehow persevere. They were born to be tough. Even on the darkest days, the natural gaiety of these spring colors brings a smile to even the harshest judge, a promise of hope eternal, and a time of rebirth and renewal.
