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.

A couple of rusted metal sheets near the sandy beach area in Cheval Blanc woods. A collection of ducks on the river shoreline were nervous that I was there. I forgot to take a (physical) photo of the areas beauty, but I have a bit in my mind-memory.

End of the work . Four bags of garbage.

Pile of garbage left in a random spot. I picked it up.

First two bags of garbage and a long black piece of plastic.

Lead plate from a battery far away ( can not be seen)

Lead plate from inside of a battery. up close.

At Cheval Blanc woods today. I cleaned up two fireplaces. As in removed the garbage and threw the campfire-fireplace stones in random locations.

I picked up a remainder of the carbon batteries at the tree with exposed roots with large cavities near the sandy beach . Cleaned up the camp site near sandy beach area. It still needs one more large garbage bag worth of cleaning.

Picked up several glass beer bottles. The deposit on those glass bottles should go up to a dollar.
I find so many glass beer bottles it isn't funny.
Everyone (going on a drunk) will then buy canned beer, which is good.

Four bags of garbage in total. Oh ya took out the large plastic tarps one orange, one white.

Considering removing he rotting plywood at the swamp as it obviously is un-natural. But then in spring people wont be able to pass by, so haven't decided yet.

The area needs a couple more hours of work of cleaning, besides getting rid of the engine block in the swamp.

No photos. I decided to take out what metal I could out of the swamp.
I loaded up my old backpack and took some by hand.
The bushes and trees tried to grab the metal out of my hands a few times (joking), it got caught in the branches several times while walking the west east trail on the north side of Cheval blanc woods.

I am trying to figure out how to get the engine block out.
I was thinking on an inflatable boat, but the engine is very heavy. It might be un floatable.
Next thought is a Dolly, a thing on wheels, but I know the pathway, the pathway is too uneven for a standard Dolly.
So it looks like a homemade dolly. Maybe over a couple of days. Moving it a certain distance over the days.
If you don't give up the fight you cant lose.
