Out with the Girls


What a glorious day. I simply had to get out with the girls and enjoy the sunshine. We walked for 2 and a half hours, basking in the sights, sounds and smells of nature. I was disappointed in the amount of garbage that has been thrown along the small road at the back of our property. This area would be pristine if not for all the empty beer bottles, beer cans, water bottles, pop cans, old couches and even the roofing off some building. The old roofing was thrown into the swamp area where I am sure that many of the forest inhabitants come to get a drink of water from the underground spring that bubbles up. Now that water has been tainted with the tar and crap that was in the roofing... I would love to know who dumped it there so that I could return it to its rightful owner. What the hell is the matter with people? My son Anthony had come along for the walk. He picked up all the beer bottles and cans and all the other bits that we could fit into the empty Staples bag that was laying on the side of the track. We vowed that we would take a bag with us every time we went for a walk so that we may clean up the mess left by the inconsiderate cretins who dared litter our little bit of green paradise. Shame on you and thank you. You made the lesson of keeping the countryside clean and habitable for the nature that relies on clean water and safe areas to graze a little easier. The girls ( Sisi, Nellie and Lizzie) enjoyed the walk too, thankfully none of them sliced open their paws on the broken glass they ran through, after all they would never think that running through the woods would mean they could raze their paws to pieces.


Recycling and collecting nickels... till next time,
