I can see why Nana was not pleased, lol. I have seen some truly heinous things. But also, I’m sure you had an absolute blast, as I do now, an adult, picking for treasures. Such a fun memory to have with your grandpa, I’m sure he loved taking you with him. Thanks for sharing your memories with me and appreciating my dump talk 🙂

My grandfather was township supervisor/dump master of his rural township and the best days were when he would take me and my cousins along on Saturdays when the dump was open. We would pick all sorts of treasures and this caused my Nana fits as she DID NOT approve of her grandchildren playing in a garbage dump.

I am in awe of my own childhood as no doubt someone would call Children and Youth Services (USA) if they saw today’s children in a garbage pit.
