having to drive into Albuquerque anyway to pickup my son from work, i hit the recycling bins. if you go to the website for ABQ there's a list of all recycling bins in town, i have my own route i follow and just get lucky.
the biggest find was 9 blue glass bottles, 2 bombay saphire, one of big stupid costco vodka bottles and assorted others. they are all put away by this moring in their special bins. i also picked up close to 15 pounds of aluminum cans, a piece of copper tubing, a pair of italian leather shoes and a steamer. i'll donate the shoes to the local thrift, use the steamer, cans are 70 cents a pound, and the copper wil go into the growing copper pile. Almost forgot the two burlap bags of corn cobs and husks. making a berm in the front yard to collect water with trhose. Blaze the dog sneaks out and eats some and probally the gophers steal a couple. that's great!
My son scrounged a fabulous kitchen sink, though there wasn't room inthe truck and i'll haul that home on Sunday.
getting the energy to start a bottle wall. it's easier to put it off.
