You see all sorts of stuff thrown out along the road. Ain't it the truth.

We don't live in town.

Walking out to get my mail today, with temps in the upper 20's, I see somebody lost their burrito. It ended up by my mailbox.

The most interesting thing I see tossed out around here, in the woods and along the roadway at times, is men's underwear. No clue why that is.

When younger when I used to walk a lot I would always find sockets on the side of the road.

Because she can't leave that around the house or in the car where hubby might find them.

People working on the vehicle and forgetting them under the hood. I drove around with the hitch ball wrench on the back of my truck bumper for a week. Fortunately the vehicle is slanted forward so it stayed put.

I drove 7 miles at 55MPH with my phone sitting on the trunk of my car before someone said at a stop light "Hey your phone is on your trunk" thank god I had a rubber case that made it stick to the paint and did not slide off.

Reminds me of an old Connie Frances song.

My little town has a population of about 4,600 people. We have once a week trash pickup and once a month 'bulk' pickup for large items. People tend to drive a mile or two outside of city limits and throw furniture and stuff in a ditch or on some farmer's property. It's really a shame that people do that. Unfortunately they rarely ever get caught doing it.

On a different note though, after my Dad lost his entire leg to cancer he would venture out on his electric scooter, usually not much more than an eight block radius of his house. Over a short period of time he had accumulated a large cool whip bowl full of change and a couple of rings he had found in and along the side of the streets. I never could figure out why so much change was lost unless it's just the younger generation tossing it away because they think it's a burden to carry and they're too dumb to realize it adds up

Sometimes you stumble across a treasure, and other times a treasure stumbles across you.

Best thing I ever found on a road was a new Minelab Pro find pinpointer in the holder on a belt along with a new water canteen and 2 alkaline batteries in the pocket of the canteen holder. Must have fell off the back of a ute.
I put up messages on detecting sites here in Aus asking if anyone had recently lost anything detecting wise where I found it. I didn't say what it was because you'd get anyone and everyone sayings it mine, its mine. I asked for the person to fully identify what they lost and they then can come and get it if right.
I had a dozen replies, all grubs pretending they lost something. Not 1 said they lost a pinpointer let alone all else that was with it. I waited a couple of months, nobody came close and its been mine ever since.

I cruise our township roads in my Ranger. I stop and pick up any large size trash I see in the ditches. My best find was a 12 pack of beer with only 2 missing.

A few days ago a guy surf fishing found 2 million dollars worth of cocaine washed up on the local beach. That happens here more than you'd think. 🤔

I too also found some beer once. Mine was a six pack with 1 missing (cans). I checked the date and the remaining 5 were 3+ years old at the time. That kinda explains the throw out scene... had to be nasty.
