After deciding to mix it up with a little run / walk down to the Synagogue because of the heat, and picking up a bonus Katie L along the way, Barbara set us straight to work trimming back the sycamore growing in the flower beds. The saplings were growing from the stumps of previously felled trees, so we weren't able to fully uproot them, but we made a good effort. Barbara kept us hydrated with some orange squash, and Andy's plums (oi oi) provided a refreshing snack.
