Did a clean-up at the lake today. Not a total clean-up, heh, only myself and one other person, but we managed to fill FOUR trash bags, and that only covered a small portion of the grounds.
Anyone from Idaho wish to accompany next weekend, provided the weather holds? This is where the clean-up took place. If any of you would like to go along, we could meet for coffee or something, and then head to the lake. Ki's willing to provide gloves, and am also willing to provide trash bags, and am willing to transport any bottles or cans found, to the recycling center.
Found an injured bird out at the lake. He's a cliff swallow
=-) Attempted to bring him to the attention of the employees at the refuge, but they said there was nothing they could do for him, and that self could place him where found him, and let nature take it's course, or could bring him home with me. Sure you can guess what Ki did. His name is Lucky.

awh! that's awesome! go lucky!

Verbatim, they said "There ain't a whole helluva lot we can do for 'im, why don'tcha stick 'im in the weeds and let nature take its course"

Facking fakin-bacons.

you could speak to someone in charge there, see if you could hold of some of the impliments to help you clean up, litter pickers and the like.

I find it odd that a refuge encourages you to come and shoot its inhabitants, but then thats americans for you.

has tell of their own organised volunteering rubbish clearing and a ccontact, that might be an idea, you'd most likely be more useful as part of a larger group (if this is what you did no sweat, if you looked at this and it didn't fit no sweat)

Yay!!!! Thank you so much! Hadn't picked through their site yet! Just found it when posted this yesterday =-D =-D

See! You say things like "That's Americans for you", meaning you know this place is full of idiots, but then you ask my questions like "Why would you want to leave that for the UK". Or is it just that people are lame everywhere??

not idiots, but people with their priorities a bit wrong, I can't believe why anyone would want to come to the UK if they weren't a benifit scrounger

From what Ki's heard, and it's only through conversation with a friend of mine, the benefits aren't very good? Can't remember exactly what it is she said, it was a brief conversation, and it was over an alchoholic beverage, heheh, but it was something about the healthcare being public, and therefore, if you have an actual emergency, you often end up waiting around on lists for months before anyone helps you. That sounds frightening to me.

to be fair thats why we don't get that many american illegal imigrants

Will just have to take extra good care of myself and not get sick if ever move out of here.

you can get private health care over here too I really should invest in some once i start working
