Side Trips
Have you ever noticed during the holidays
how much more garbage appears
long the curbs on trash pick-up days?
At our house the can in the garage was
overflowing after
Christmas from the
extra cooking, extra
meals and entertaining,
as well as the kids
being home more
than they normally
are. Add all of the
wrapping paper and
packaging from gifts
and no matter how
much you squish, everything
just doesn’t fit
in one can.

WAGNER
We are not alone, as I witnessed on my
drive to work today. Nearly every home had
an extra bag or two stacked alongside their
regular disposal bin on the curb. In many
places there were bright colored boxes as
well — evidence of the presence of young
children in that particular home — and that
made me smile.
At the four-way stop by the school, I waited
for another vehicle to turn. As the driver
and vehicle pulled past me I thought her car
was making a really odd noise. Perhaps the
crunchy sound was from her tires grabbing
hold of the icy accumulation on the street?
I looked into my rear-view mirror and
quickly diagnosed the problem: a white
garbage bag and plastic garbage can were
wedged beneath her car and being pulled
along down the street. I watched for a
moment and wondered about how to get
her attention. But with school busses and
parents dropping kids off, there was no easy
way to turn around and head the opposite
direction.

that’s one house with less garbage at the
curb.
