HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE

 If you follow the blog you know this was my ladies idea,brilliant.Phone on belt loop with camera,garbage bag,sticker picker upper and a bag to put in documents as well as headlamp.Glasses and hat optional but making me look way cool for a guy who is about to pick up garbage on the way to a  city council meeting.Yes I wish I could have taken the dog if only for moral support.I feel awkward at the meetings,but that feeling goes away a little bit each time.I wish I could just go to the meeting and not have to say anything ,I could then have time just to stand up and say thank you for all you do.How ironic!I bet it will be in 2 weeks.I have faith.
 I left 50 minutes early and barely made the meeting.I wasn't able to stop after a while and even had to skip some trash.It took over an hour to get home,but I did talk to some folks about my mission and came across a disabled soul who quietly breathed"you wont find any trash in my yard",and I did not.I stopped to talk and as always was floored.So many folks are on disability or confined to wheel chairs and still clean up after those who make the mess.These folks would put a tree in their yard to support the cause but have no money.I can talk about it here because they don't have internet.Yes they are genuine folks.How humbling to be free from disability.As a matter of fact I would be honored to donate more trees.Although money is starting to get scarce, I believe.
This by no means is treasure,I even found a pair of pants.I'm not looking forward to going through this stuff to recycle it.Why are they still making Styrofoam anyway?I thought it couldn't be recycled or burned.An has even much more dangerous qualities than are never worth mentioning.Great something else to look up.I just did.Styrofoam is BANNED from  major cities!WOW if they can do it so can we.This is why I need folks to help out with saving Kewanee.It would be so easy to ban Styrofoam.Someone just has to take the time to ask local business to stop using for 3 months.And see what happens.My guess is there would be a lot less of it to deal with and for that it would be well worth the effort.I shouldn't rant and rave.You should!God Bless
