Murrieta, CA
Used to be mine. I had it stored away in Murrieta, but I never got a chance to take it home to Arcadia and when the tenants moved out, they took this and the garbage cart to their new home. Was really mad when I found out they stole it since it wasn't even their property (and they took the garbage cart, so that's going to take extra time to replace as well). Hope to find another one of these crates since this one smelled pretty bad when I first got it.
Déjà vu? Well this was highly inspired from the LEGO City Orange Recycle/Garbage Truck 7991 set. I really loved that set to be honest, but it's just too small to go with the rest of my vehicle scale. So I did my own version, just took the inspiration from that set. Modify the design a bit. Max will fit 6 minifigs in the cab. I didn't want to add the hydraulic axle. Just preferred this look better.
A sculpture made from rubbish creates an impact and imparts a powerful message on the beach in Oostende.
In the background, you can see containers filled with plastic and rubbish collected on the beach for recycling.
Gigantic TVs and some not-so-big all shrink wrapped for their trip somewhere to be torn apart and their valuable components salvaged. Yes, it's a wasteful system we live in. Places like this help mitigate some of the negatives. It's the least we can do. Support your local recycling efforts!
(This location accepts anything electronic where they salvage the valuable, re-usable, and dangerous components.)
I went downtown to our Saturday Farmer's Market this afternoon and there was also a "recycled arts festival" going on. Tons of people, booths and art work.
Below: Is it really necessary to take your dog to the farmer's market on the hottest day of the year?. Most if not all of the dogs I saw there looked absolutely miserable. If it's scorching hot for humans, how do you think dogs feel w/ all that fur and walking on asphalt?. I swear, people don't have a brain in their head. Sorry for venting. It just makes me mad how clueless people can be.
I made this mini to record our summer outdoor "finds". My plan is to take pictures of all the nature-y things that the boys and I find as we are outside. We have tons of lizards, frogs, birds, and other animals in our area and the boys and I love checking them out. I plan to include pictures and write in the information about the discovery. Kind of a little science discovery notebook with pics.
I used a 12 x 12 sheet of cardboard cut into 4 x 6 rectangles. I used the HA raindrop stamp, the HA shadow screen stamp on the tree and the HA Explore and Discover stamp. I also used the HA Three Ferns stamp on the interior. There are ten pages and tags in the album and a front and back cover.
All the cardstock and pp came from my scrap pile. The pp on the tree is Flair and the other green pp is Daisy D's. The chipboard tree is Maya Road. The metal "tree swing" is from Making Memories oldddd metal line and the fuzzy date sticker is Prima.Ink is Tim Holtz Walnut Ink and Peeled Paint. TFL
This is neither an antique shop, nor a waste disposal. I have seen this in Gyantse (Tibet, China) in a rather simple workshop specialized in recycling used pumps and motors.
Many thanks for your visits / comments / favs!
Well I was trying to find #326 but found this in the recycling bin!!
But lucky the driver took it out.

I went to the Sugar Bowl this weekend in New Orleans. First, I drove to my brother's house in Georgia on Thursday. On Friday, we drove to N.O. and watched the Sugar Bowl. The game sucked as Bama got their butts handed to them.
In addition to that, we were tired after the game, so we just went back to the hotel room and crashed. No fun, no pictures....no WIN! On Saturday, we had some breakfast and then we drove back to Georgia.
The only saving grace for this whole trip is that I did manage to get some shots in a couple of places I don't go very often. This shot was taken at the Recycling Center in Auburn, Alabama. There were HUGE piles of wine bottles, beer bottles, beer cans, etc. As soon as I saw this, I thought, "Geeze, these people drink a lot."
It was nice to see so many people (or a few VERY serious drinkers) recycling so much. This was a great facility that made it easy for people to drop off their recyclable materials.
There are quite a few 'scavenger' people in Bangkok who specialise in collecting and recycling garbage.
