Bags of garbage

The photos of bags of garbage on this blog do not magically appear. I fill the garbage bag up in 15 min. to an hour and take the bag to be picked up by the city. Most garbage comes from little bits everywhere that add up to one large bag when collected into a group. Photos height and width (March 26, 2024) now match original.

I cleaned at the rapids of Cap St Jacques. First I took out what was left of a small mattress, a bunch of wire springs, then I cleaned the shoreline.

I had collected a bunch of red bricks on the shoreline of easten Rapides du Cheval Blanc/ Whitehorse rapids into a pile. This day I took them to the city street to be picked up.

blue box on my bike to hold the bricks

Due to their weight I could only take about twelve bricks at a time.

All the bricks I took out next to fire hydrant. I think six trips.

rules of the area "no dumping". The bricks were on the shoreline and needed to be cleaned up.
