Northern Michigan

You come to see the beauty that we have up here and leave nothing but trash.
Some were after mid Michigan you begin to see the thinning of houses and business alike, and some of you begin to see the lack of road side debris. Now for the average person you do not see this or even take notice of it. Why you may ask well I have a few ideas to this, one you are all so use to having trash littler your streets and roads so much so you have just grown accustom to it. And two you no longer see the nature in the concrete jungles, it has become nothing more then concrete and garbage.
Now living up here for 3 plus years we have grown very accustom to the clean highways and roads, but every week end we have you week enders come roaring up here and throwing your trash along the roads as if you were back in you concrete jungles were no one cares about the garbage. I do not mind the money you bring to our town, but you also bring all that trash with you that we can do without.
The things none of you have ever seen due to that lack of staying past the week end blast you came for, the people that volunteers cleaning the highways and roads I am not referring to the community service folks either. I am talking about retires that spend their time walking along the highways and roads cleaning you weekend blast. They spend their free time cleaning up what you have left.
So the next time you come to visit the northern Michigan please keep in mind we do not like are living area looking like yours, this is the reason we moved away from it.

So next time keep you trash or put it where it belongs in a trash can.
