I am in love with the human spirit that does not want to throw everything into the landfill.

People - all of us - have a lot of possessions that we outgrow or might not need anymore
and that for one reason or another, we cannot bring ourselves to throw directly into the dumpster.

 

I love the people who believed that these items might be needed or wanted by someone else
and when they were dropped off at the dump, they were left to the side so that someone could claim them
before the sanitation crew was obligated to put them into the dumpster.

Most of these photos were taken at the dump/recycling center in the town where I live - 
a couple of them are from random locations around town.
