Remember going to the dump with Daddy on Saturdays. It was one of the favorite activities of our preschool and gradeschool aged children, as I recall. And it gave Mom much needed time to clean up the house without tripping over children!
It is much easier to go to the dump now, because it is only two blocks away and actually isn’t a dump so much as a drop off station for the dump. Wednesday afternoon and Saturday mornings are the only times it is open. After cleaning the garage on Sunday there was a lot of stuff to go over, plus my recycling barrel was overflowing. So I got all that taken over and everything feels so much cleaner and neater. I’ve also moved three carloads of stuff to the new house. I basically cleaned out the freezer room except for the freezer. Ah, progress….
I DO remember going to the dump! 🙂
