Have been hitting a lot of the local parks where I grew up. Lots of targets showing up but so much junk. I even went to a school that i went to that both of my parents attended. I went out back where the football field was, and is now a parking lot. The baseball field which was the only one around was still there but looked different. I finally realized the field was at
East two feet higher than it used to be. No wonder targets were showing up so damned deep, that i passed up most of them. Ok, off to the oldest park in town and i start hitting the grassy areas around the baseball fields and the shallowest i get anything is 6 inches and again so darn much trash in and above the ground. After an hour and a bag full of trash and a few coins, i sit down for a drink and realize this field has also been raised up some. It looks like many park fields in town have been raised up the same way.
I find more garbage in the suburban parks than in the Chicago parks.
