Tom Blackwood needlessly 'Dumpster Diving' |
Dumpster Diving
By Janis 'Charlie' Bialko
My husband Tom had arrived home from the boat late at night. Well, first thing next morning, he was looking for his list of things to do. Couldn't find it anywhere. Then Tom realized he had put the list (along with the iPod) in a plastic grocery bag. On his way out of the marina, he threw the garbage into the dumpster. You guessed it, the garbage is always in a plastic grocery sack. So, Tom figured he must have tossed the iPod grocery bag & the garbage into the Marina dumpster. Tom and I hopped in the car (with a ladder), to go dumpster diving.

Once we got there, our 'hero' quickly located the garbage bag from the tug, along with a lot of pre-Independence Day "items". When he could not find the iPod grocery bag, I suggested we check the tug.................Gosh, there it was sitting comfortably on the bench in the salon. Whew!
