I find the dangdest things on the road...
Being an avid non-motoring traveler, (bicycle and walking) I find all kinds of stuff on the road.

Mostly discarded bottles, half or a quarter full of soda or bottled water. :-(

But I find other stuff too.

CD's, kids' toys, and today I found a keyring, that has a short thin aluminum cylinder on it.
Press a button on the side and a blue LED lights up. Really bright, too.

2. Those discarded bottles ain't full of water.
They are "trucker bombs".

Don't ask.

You don't want to know.

3. Oh, I know all about those.
I never want to hit one of them with my bicycle tire! :wow:
(Almost did once...)

4. I find lots of stuff when I walk the dog,
I found a really nice pen, coins, key chains with keys, and a really nice shirt jacket.

I washed the shirt jacket, still have it.

What I find interesting is what people throw away in front of their houses, some of the stuff is still good.

This is why I have truck, I take the stuff and give it away to people I know who can use it.
