Feeling Positive?

March 27, 2006

It’s tough to feel positive when the task in front of you looks like this.



But even with sights like this, we feel we can tackle it or at least clean as much as we can. We only have a week before Cliff has to go back to work and I have to put the time into my business, so we had hoped the weather would be nice. Looks to be rainy soon so we really wanted to gather a substantial amount of trash today.

A little miffed that neighborhood teens had rearranged our tire piles and threw around metal pieces. Now everything we collect has to go up to our property the same day. Here is the drain a day after Cliff cleared it with one of our collected tires and a new ball stuffed in it. Cute, heh?



Happy to report that the City has offered to collect the trash we gather. I had been worrying where we would be able to take so many tires and metal pieces, so at least that is taken care of. Now we just need to figure out how some of the pieces will make it up the hillside.

It looks like we might be able to have no dumping signs and letters sent out. It feels as our cleanup efforts won’t be in vain.
