I really wish that people differentiated between pure trash, typical recyclables (cans, bottles, etc.), and then things other people can use. It is sad that just people can afford to waste, they do when they are so near others that would need it.
Not really a tourer, though give me 30 years and I'll be there, just wanted to give you a *thumbs up*.
By the way, books?!? I didn't think a bookstore would toss books; were they brand new?
