This morning I decided instead of going fishing that I would go to the Cedar Island and Horseshoe accesses and pick-up the litter. My daughter and I picked up 2 garbage bags full of bottles, cans, cigarette packages, ect.
What was disturbing was at the Horseshoe access is someone is dumping their cat litter boxes and burnt garbage. God only knows what they are throwing in the lakes and rivers.
I am not wanting thank yous or pats on the back for picking this stuff up. I would just like to police ourselves it doesn’t take much time to write down a licence plate # and call the authorities.
Whats worse is the bridge areas on the chain need cleaning too. I just don’t have room in my garbage can to clean that area right now.
On a good note we saw many differnt types of ducks using the Chain. Widgeons, buffleheads, ringbills, mallards, common merganzers, wood ducks, bluebills and many geese.
