Roadside Trash

In the years visiting Thetis Isl., then living here for a long time, I have noticed cigarette butts everywhere.

This includes dog excrement. 

Wrappers strewn here and there.

I do not understand that concept to 'just throw litter,' including cans, bottles, anywhere.

Butts are litter and dangerous at that. If I had counted them during my walks,

I believe I would have a huge bag to dump, plus many more.

I would love people to refrain from throwing out their garbage from vehicles or when walking.

Also, I wish that dog owners would be so kind and considerate to have their dogs kept in their yards, or on a leash while walking.

It is most frustrating when a dog jumps into my yard and barks at me, or scares the heck out of me! It has happened time and again. The rules in the city for dogs is also the same here.

I have asked time and again to please have your pet on a leash, or in a fenced in area in their yard. This way deer will not be chased across properties or on road.

It would be most pleasing if we all followed rules of etiquette.  

I appreciate David Green’s comments on espokes this morning.

Thank you, Dave.
