The situation in the cities of Longview and Kelso could b improved also. Fast food debris, beverage containers, and cigarette butts (by the 100's) top the list. Wish that people would be more responsible in terms of discarding and then picking up others mistakes.
let me continue---as I have not completed my thoughts and accidentally posted before I finished.
You and me are of an age of people that wanted, (Yeah 60's Boomer's I get it) who in fact demanded our state be pristine. I for sure and hopefully you wanted our state to be an example of caring, even down to litter along our highways.
Brother, that time is gone.
Litter on our highways ain't on anybody's mind. At least to anyone who cares about our future as a state or for that matter, our country.
Litter is the least thing we ought to care about. Our Democracy is jeopardized.
And my friend, may I suggest, you ought to use your voice to speak to that issue cause let me say, that is far more important in this instance than speaking about litter.
I get litter is ugly. Hey, trash is bad, but how about the fact that human activity is destroying our environment, and if we continue to "Trash" the planet we got a bleak future.
And how about using your voice to talk about topics of immediacy?
Of course kudo's on your work exposing the real "Nut" jobs you got on your City Council but how about starting a conversation on the next four years.
I recently made the trip to Vancouver cited by Andre. I was also shocked at the volume of trash. He may have actually minimized the condition. What came to mind was the disrespect shown by drivers for our state. This disrespect is also reflective of the disrespect shown to fellow citizens and is indicative of the environment created by our president and other politicians. Our president disrespects the rule of law, the constitution, tradition, veterans and his opponents. Disagreements do not entitle one to disrespect.
We need to reject the creation of an atmosphere of disrespect to heal the nation and repair the earth.
This time I gotta take exception to your taking the time to use your remarkable and gifted ability as a wordsmith, to use your voice, common sense, courage in fact, to address things of consequence and which ought to matter, in fact do matter.
Can't we get those in jails/prisons, civic organizations etc to perhaps pick up trash? Westside Highway can also be a disgrace with too much garbage accumulation.

I don't know if anyone else is scared, but I am.

As my Daddy used to say, “some people are just sorry.”
