Know what really bugs me?

Going to the park to play and enjoy nature with my son and finding trash all over.  I’m not an easily annoyed person but this really gets to me.

It’s basically a requirement to live in Colorado to spend lots of time outside.  We live about half an hour from Rocky Mountain National Park.  We go up into the mountains as often as possible and love to get out and enjoy local trails and parks pretty much daily.  It breaks my heart to see litter laying around.  Especially when it’s within view of a trash can or junk people left just sitting out at a picnic area or campground. What’s up with that???


My challenge this week is for each and every reader to go to a local park, trail, or open space and pick up trash.  Grab some gloves and an old bag and go clean up your local park!!!  Come back to the Rafflecopter widget and you’ll get 5 entries towards a FREE Keeper or Moon Cup when you’re done- I’ll post it as an option this week and next week (it will be honor system- please don’t abuse it)!
