A Cleaner Park!!!


It doesn't feel like the heat wave is back, but NO ONE wanted to go to the park this morning. I slept late, and JJ insisted on turning around and coming home after a block or so - never even got to the block of Argyle between Church and Caton which we refer to as The Buffet - an array of food for JJ from one end of the block to the other - ribs, chicken, veggies in sauce - a doggie's heaven. VERY short leash on that block, although she usually manages to get something.

Luckily, we went yesterday, which was another beautiful day. This is kind of a boring blog message, but what can you do? I must say, the Park does seem to be looking cleaner (although we don't look under the toilet shrubs. They've gone from 1 to 2 and now 3 Dumpsters next to the Nethermead! Not totally gorgeous, but they keep the place much nicer. At one time they asked Tony to clean up there. Tony's also a Park volunteer, and regularly (along with a few others) keeps the Peninsula clean. Were they kidding? I think not, but Nethermead is at least 4 times as big as Peninsula!

Only 1 crack bag and one bottle on Lookout Hill. I wonder if there's someone else picking up trash besides me, because it had been a fabulously beautiful night the evening before, and I'm sure that many many people were hanging out., partying, etc. in the park. An extremely fit man doing Tai Chi at the top, very silently. So we were silent too, in order not to disturb him. 32 geese at the beach, and all the swans look fine.
