Nothing says service like a good ol' park clean-up. :)
This is actually up the canyon near our house close to a popular park/campground. It's on public land and is a common place, apparently, for people to use as a shooting range. (Yes, legal to shoot - not legal, or cool, to litter.)
I hadn't actually been to this area, but had heard that it need some serious cleaning up. They weren't lying. We're talking crane and dump truck type cleaning. But we felt pretty good about what we did. We just picked one area, stayed away from the river and made a noticeable effort on the main hang out part.
We started with our picnic, of course. (I wanted to bring some of those stumps home, wouldn't those make cool backyard furniture?!)
Full stomachs and ready to roll:
Hard at work:
It doesn't look like that big of a trash bag, but it was big and it was full and it was a lot of trash. A small dent for what needed to be done, but if everyone made a small dent, how much more beautiful of a world we would have!
PS: Cost of project - $0.00 :)
