After lunch, yesterday, in the sun-drenched skies and with the heat making our skins shiny and bright
We loaded up a trailer full of metal to take to Montrose to Rec-Cla Metals to be recycled.
I know I’m sorta, kinda, on the weird side, but I love watching those massive machines; it’s so satisfying seeing them work.
The operators as quick and graceful as ballet dancers, filling the area with numerous hunks of metal— like a constellation falling, scattering on the earth—-
Only in a tidy ending. 🙂

Probably feels good to get the place cleaned up.

I understand how fascinating it is to watch these huge machines at work — it’s amazing that they can maneuver so deftly.

I don’t think you are weird. My sister gets all excited to go the dump and watch the bulldozers push all the garbage into a tiny lump. The recycling center is there too so we make lots of trips including hazardous waste like paint. Tidying up feels good.

It does. After one does it, then the thought is: Why didn’t I do this sooner!

Not weird at all, it’s like a sort of dinosaur ballet. Pounce, gnash, crunch, all gone!

That’s a big yet tidy load ~ So lucky to have a place to take extra metals!
