An Arlo moment

[msmemory_archive]

I feel a chorus of Alice's Restaurant coming on. The town won't take my yard waste except for during a few weeks in the spring and fall. The DPW website says they have a list of places that take dumping "for a small fee" but the clerk in the office says none of those places is accepting it any more.

I have this urge to drive out to the countryside, find a cliff, and dump all my weeds and prunings over the edge! But I'd probably just get busted for Littering. And Creating A Nuisance.

Maybe I'll get me one of those copper firepits and burn it all, one fistful at a time.

If you have marshmallows or hot dogs and a small, well-controlled fire, can't you call it a cookout? I don't know what the law is in your town but that works in lotsa places. I'm from the country, admittedly, but once our township passed a law like that mom just made a point of having s'mores whenever she burned brush.

I bet I can. I don't want to make a fire circle in my lawn, though, so I would get a firebowl on feet and set it on the brick patio.
