Good Citizen

Landon is working on his Citizen pin for Webelos, and he needed to plan and execute a service project. So he decided to clean up the garbage between our school and our home. We started yesterday and quickly filled a large bag with garbage. Today we went at it again on our way home from school. We ended up with three more garbage bags! It was amazing how much trash we found. The kids were so disgusted that people litter so much. Our bags were filled before we even got to our neighborhood, so tomorrow we'll tackle that, assuming it's not raining.

We did this last year, and I was shocked as well to see just how much trash was between the school and our house!

There seems to be more litter in Washington. Puyallup was terrible. Ethan picked up trash for this project, too. And sometimes I'd just go out and pick up trash cuz it's one of my biggest pet peeves. Why are people so dang lazy?
