I THINK I ACCOMPLISHED MY GOAL!
I think I did it! I accomplished the goal I set almost three years ago . . . making a difference in the City of Akron! I haven't picked up trash in Akron since August 26, almost two months ago. I decided to focus somewhere else. Keep Akron Beautiful and the City of Akron made me feel foolish for wasting my time picking up trash. I honestly believed they could do more to keep Akron clean. Other cities much larger could pick up their trash, so I stopped picking up trash in Akron, and focused all my energy in Barberton. Last weekend, I went to Barberton to pick up trash, and there wasn't any to pick up! What a great day! Well earlier this week, I noticed the entrance ramp from Main Street to I-76 was clean! A dozen black trash bags dotted the ramp on both sides. Who did that? I don't know. So this morning, I drove to the Dollar Store that I cleaned weekly. I typically picked up a thousand pieces every week here...
