Trash Picking

Someone on our street had this perfectly good little slide out on the curb for trash pickup this morning. There is nothing wrong with it, so I assume their child outgrew it. I noticed it on my way to drop B at school. I tried to resist, but ended up stopping the van and tossing it in on my way home. I figured why let a perfectly good little slide go to the landfill, when all it needs is a little cleanup. L is enjoying it. It is a nice addition to the little playhouse. It also helps the peas climb onto the trampoline more easily. The facts are in...I'm a trash picker.

That adorable slide was in the trash?! I'm glad it has a happy home.

Yep. There were a ton of empty boxes, a little ride on toy, a small wood cabinet, and of course regular trash. I didn't want to look crazy though, so I just grabbed the slide.
