Remember in the Spring as
a kid when you walked the roads barefoot without a care?
Well don’t try it now unless you’ve had your tetanus shot and lots of antiseptic and Band-Aids and a high pain threshold.
Spring has become the time to pick up the trash before the wild lilies and grasses cover up the broken bottles and cans.
Just you and the sounds of the birds singing from the trees and people hollering “hoXvdie” from passing cars and the occasional “ouch!” from thorn pricks or from you slipping down the banks.
So for those of you who do choose to litter b keeping those of us like me busy b here are a few rules I hope you will follow as you continue trashing the county:
• Don’t throw your cans and bottles way up the banks. You can still see them from the road and it makes it so difficult for those of us who have to clamber up (or down) those banks to pick them up.
• Try not to throw bottles and cans in briar bushes. Unlike Brer Rabbit, we get horribly scratched and hung up when we wade into those briar patches.
• About bottles—get out of your vehicle and gently place them down so they won’t break and spread glass all over. Broken glass never goes away.
