Down by the river (um, er... creek/ditch)

My backyard is definitely not your standard yard by any means. In fact, it cannot really be called a yard, its actually a small creek bed. In truth, its more of a ditch bed, but will pass for a creek bed.
This afternoon, I spent some time chopping out a large nasty briar patch that was growing down by the creek. By itself, it would not have been so bad, since it was sort of out of the way. However, it was "protecting" some poison ivy, so it had to go so I could kill the PI.
