A Full Recycle Bin

We have a full recycle bin. At least we did have yesterday morning. Bottles and cans and plastic containers were piled up and mounding over the top of the cobalt blue container.

What a sight to see, it was. I have long longed for a mounding recycle bin. They have one across the street at least once a month. The guys at the end of the street have one frequently, too. This was our first. And it made me proud.

Enjoy the good life all ye who visit here, it seemed to say. Have Orangina! Have chocolate flavored Yoohoo! This is a hopping place, you know. Have canned pears!

What a sight to see, it was. Everyone up and down the street must know by now.

But let's keep it quiet how many of those cans and bottles were picked up litter from the neighborhood. And let's not point out that the bulk of the mound was trash from a many-person camping trip.

We'll just keep those details quiet. Let the neighbors think what they must be thinking. This is a hopping place!
