give litter the boot – apr. 25

very large boot

Greetings from Cheyenne, Wyoming. Took a minute to wander around downtown and was happy to see very little litter within a four block radius of the capitol. It’s very windy here and I was pleasantly surprised that there wasn’t more trash blowing around. Overall, it’s pretty clean here. Found a few items, so here they are.

plastic strapping wrap

This was the first piece of litter I spotted after walking  a few blocks.  It’s that hard plastic strapping wrap.

styrofoam cup

This is the next piece of litter I spotted. It’s a half filled styrofoam drink cup that was placed on this metal plate on the capitol grounds. It was the only piece of litter in sight.

gum

One block over, I spotted this piece of chewing gum on the sidewalk near the entrance of the Wyoming state museum. As I’ve said before, I typically pick up the litter I photograph, but I draw the line at gum – ICK!

wendys bag

One more block away, spotted a crumpled fast food bag (note cig butt and plastic bottle cap ring in upper right hand corner).

plastic bottle

On the next and final block, a plastic soda bottle lies on the grass of a bank.
