Brainstorming here of what cleaning work I remember. I will look for photos.
My computer hard drive crashed so I lost a lot of photos I think?
Regular cleaning of bottles and cups and various items are forgotten.
Significant Cleaning Garbage at Whitehorse Rapids Park / Cheval Blanc Rapids .
Starting in June Along the south footpath, that runs east to west, I cut up a metal motorcycle frame (garbage in the park on a manhole cover) and took it , along with 12 old car tires to the east side entrance of the park.
The garbage disappeared, so I assume the city garbage services took it.
Old car battery that ants had taken a liking to. Broken chairs.
Old two person sofa that party-ers had left. I dismantled it/cut it up and took it out.
Found a huge collection of old batteries in a tree hollow on the shoreline ( and removed them) thanks to Geoff. Geoff is another lover of the park who informed me of the batteries. He thought they were road flares.
July I suffered from a bad sunburn.
In August I found low water levels at Cap St Jacques and garbage at the North shoreline.
I removed electrical wires, chains, tires, old wood, partial truck frame, and many buckets of glass and broken glass from the shoreline.
In Bois de lies, I tried to clean up the western corner of the park. Lots of garbage dumped over the years. No police or fines for the dumpers I presume.
Oddities
A little east of Cheval blanc rapids park, there was a very old car rear axle and differential on the shoreline. I took it out to the regular garbage of the residences. PHOTO LINK HERE
Pulled out a broken big screen TV out of a small woods, along with some personal items. I forgot to take a photo of the pile. It was a masterpiece of a garbage pile. I hope it got tongues wagging.PHOTO LINK HERE
Took a car engine out of the river near where I live. I had to move it up a cliff about 10 feet. I did it by hand with no winches. I did it in steps. PHOTO LINK HERE
