Earth Day 2009


I went out in my boat today and did my best to support Earth Day 2009. I paddled from Holmes Pt on Lake Washington under beautiful sunny skies to Sand Pt Navel Station and picked up discarded junk along the shoreline! A half hour at the most is all it took to fill the hatches of my Romany! Too bad I didn't have room for the 55 gal barrel and the many tires I saw along the shoreline.

Here's what I picked up:

32 tennis balls, 1 fishing bobber, 2 soccer balls, 1 Happy Valentines' balloon, 1 Happy Birthday balloon, I plastic coffee mug, 1 foam cup holder, 8 aluminum cans, 37 plastic bottles, 1 glass perfume bottle, 1 white ladies shoe, 1 flip flop, 2 plastic grocery bags, 2 nylon ropes and 1 rubber glove..
