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.

Picked up some trash . Guy told me story how the cut tree stumps got there. I don't believe him, but I pretended to, to have a conversation with him. He couldn't accept my disbelief. I dunno.
Shoreline is still torn up from the vehicule. I still have to bring up a collection of bricks I've made.

At the three benchs ,picked up two coffee cups full of cigarette butts and some garbage, plus collected the small bag of garbage in the photo from the shoreline.
Contemplated that smokers may be slightly psychopathic. They drop the butts where ever they like, as if it is not garbage, + plus second hand smoke was of no consequence to them before the second hand smoke laws came into effect.

A large rat? I think. I put it in a grey plastic bag.

Two bags of garbage and a dead animal in the grey plastic bag. The garbage comes from the riverfront near where I live. I picked up some trash on one side the other day. I described finding tree stumps and vehicle tracks Oct 17, 2011.

Took out some bricks and asphalt out of cheval blanc.
One medium-small bag of garbage (beer bottles) from river shoreline.
Then I found a huge piece of foam , the shape looked like half a small boat. maybe 3 feet by 3 feet looked dirty.
I carried it to the garbage bin on the street. Might get a photo tomorrow.(got photo)
I looked a little like Atlas.


but thought of myself as Sisyphus , having to clean up garbage every day, and the next day to do the same thing. I like the finished product as God-Mother nature intended, so my work is not meaningless.

Roadside garbage. Collected during the walk up from the entrance to the first picnic area on the river-in-the-woods.

Underwear found near the shoreline on top of a bag of garbage I collected.

A few hours work at Cap St Jacq. Found the rusted metal pile at "DrunkRussian" fishing spot and took it to the trash. The trail ended as there was too much water to walk along the shore without getting wet feet-shoes.
