This evening I helped out my husband with a job cleaning up the trash that is left after the winter snow-plowing season snow mountain has started to melt. You've probably seen these mountains of pestilence and waste in the parking lot of your local neighborhood box store.
The mountain of doom melts slowly, so this will probably be a process over the next few weeks – A twisted archeological dig of sorts.
Tonight's inventory of the flotsam and jetsam of misery included:
- work gloves
- vinyl disposable glove
- dirty diaper
- security badge
- possibly part of a key fob
- booze bottle
- plastic Coke bottle with pee in it
- disposable masks - several
- switch cover from a device of some kind
- candy wrappers
- plastic bag
- broken watch/Fitbit band
- paper towels
- broken stakes
- bunny head; no, it was not a toy.
- a large crow lying on its back in the grass; no, it was not sunbathing. Think - Weekend at Bernie's
- pieces of concrete
- and much, much more.
That brings me to my awesome find of the evening. A real, live, honest-to-goodness Pirate Doubloon!! If you look at today's image, you will see that it's even written right on the back. That proves it's real! I am so happy with my awesome find. I'm rich! It makes picking up all the rest of that nastiness worth it. Well, except for the pee bottle. Pee bottles are never worth it, not for all the pirate doubloons in the world.
