Earth Day 2012

Happy Earth Day!

Cole and I picked up garbage on our county road again this year. Today we were out for less time than last year and picked up less too. Using the wagon helped a ton this year. Instead of making 3 trips back to the house, there was only one trip needed. We separated everything between garbage and recycling. Most of the garbage is recyclable; pop bottles, cans, plastic and glass containers.

Last year we picked up garbage in the rain... This year we had really, really wet ditches so we didn't get as far as we wanted to as our shoes and socks were soaked! We are planning on doing a second trip down further down the road when it dries up. There is still a lot of plastic and bottles/cans visible in the ditch.


Sideways Cole with our loot.

 

The paint can and an exploded tire were the unique items of this year's loot.
