Dumpster Diving for treasure


Ok so dumpster diving is quickly becoming my forte but nonetheless, I still want to have a sense of class about it. First, I hate when people are looking at me picking through others people garbage. But nonetheless, I think it's important to develop the a spirit of re-utilization and a wanting to recycle materials that will other wise just add to land fills. While searching for treasures i have to be discreet and I also must not appear like I'm patrolling around the neighborhood. But the best way that I have found is to search my neighborhood the night prior to garbage pickup. I have a bit of dark humor when I say this, but 'look what the tornado dropped in" I found these two shelving systems that were thrown out and were perfect for my growing needs. But Again even though my wife shares my enjoyment she has her limits. as for me I just can get carried away with using all kinds of materials. The only thing that is holding me back is the thought of my space looking like a junkyard museum. I do not want that.
