Inmate litter crews reclaim some of the area's beauty

This is a big thank you to the inmate litter crews and the government agency that administers, with our tax dollars, the litter pickup program. They picked up the multitudinous pounds of litter from our road, part of which is a North Carolina byway, just before Easter. You do a beautiful thing for us, and I appreciate it.

We live in a beautiful place by God's grace. Our roadsides are constantly assaulted by trash carelessly thrown out by those who seem not to care.

It may seem minor to them, but I wonder: How do they treat the rest of God's creations, friends, family, pets, wildlife, who also live here on this place?

when i see a crew up ahead, i grab a handful of change and toss it out. it's awesome to look back and see them diving all over it...

It's so nice to see a Country music icon take the time to notice our road gangs. And, as the song says, "It wasn't God who made Honky Tonk Angels".

TLC, I too thought of that grand dame of Country music when I saw the author of this LTTE!

Regarding the last question; "It may seem minor to them, but I wonder: How do they treat the rest of God's creations, friends, family, pets, wildlife, who also live here on this place?" To pose the question one should already know the answer, provides me the answer!

Shalom

Guys,

This might actually be THE Kitty Wells. I think she actually lived in Greensboro about 50 years ago. Maybe she moved back?
