Snow is beginning to melt here in the great white north!🙂🇨🇦
Mornings are still a little frosty and ground is still too frozen for any metal detecting so I decided to head out and drive a few local scenic country roads.
Did not drive too far before noticing every time i would glance at the roadside there were literally Piles of empties in some places, so pulled over, grabbed a garbage bag from the trunk of my car, my trash claw and started walking..
After only about two miles i had filled the trunk of the car and was reusing bags i would come across along the roadside every now and then..
On a couple occasions i looked up to see passersby's giving a thumbs up or shouting a ''right on man" or ''Thank you!" A few locals even stopped to ask if i needed anything like a ride, any water or food and with a smile said thanks for what i was doing before heading on their way, one fellow even stopped and handed me some cash..!🙂
Realising that the road i was collecting empties on was probly not the only one with the unsightly distraction i spent the next few days walking an collecting from a couple of my favourite roads to simply just drive along.
Only had 3-5 hours of free time each trip out, but managed to cover/clear just under 15 miles before spending a day cleaning and sorting all the bugs out.
Bags in the left of totals pic contain beverages with varying percentages of Alcohol and bags on the right contain Water bottles and Soda cans..
Was all in all an enjoyable and rewarding way to get some exercise, take in some fresh spring air and admire the views while doing a little spring cleaning/clearing.
Cheers all!
