I'm way behind on blogging about my recycling-picking-up adventures. I've also been on vacation a bit lately, spending a weekend in the Silver City area and this past week in northern Michigan (my first ever visit to Michigan, it included a trip to the fabled Upper Peninsula, my first ever chance to see a home game of my longtime favorite sports franchise, the Detroit Tigers, and several hours spent picking wild blueberries, among other activities). However, I did some collecting before these trips, and am now getting around to listing them while cleaning the house. I don't remember the dates on these, so I'm just going to list them all at once.
Trip #4: ~1 mile, OSE building to house:
Total of 26 pieces, although this counts as one piece an entire Alibi, which maybe should count as like 30 sheets of paper, as we all know that is what it would have ended up as had I not picked it up.
2 glass bottles
8 aluminum cans
13 plastic bottles
3 pieces of paper
Trip #5: ~1.1 miles, Community garden to house:
Total of 21 pieces
1 glass bottle
3 aluminum cans
14 plastic bottles
2 pieces of paper
1 chipboard box
Trip #6: ~0.6 miles, ATC to house:
Total of 39(!) pieces (my plastic bag become overburdened and started to tear; I had to leave it somewhere, walk home, get another bag, and come back to complete this collection)
18 glass bottles
5 aluminum cans
13 plastic bottles
3 pieces of paper
Total number of pieces so far is 158:
38 glass bottles
31 aluminum cans
67 plastic bottles
6 plastic bags
13 pieces of paper
1 cardboard box
1 tin can
1 chipboard box
Amazing what a holiday weekend (4th of July in this case) will do to a town.
