Garbage + Trash x Rubbish = Art

Where I grew up, in Tooele, Utah the Garbage collector knew to pick up the Trash if there was an official decal of the letter G, displayed in the front window of the home. The decal indicated that the occupant had paid their fees for Garbage service. To the North of Tooele is the cowpoke town of Grantsville. This little redneck town in the shadow of Tooele, displayed a decal of the letter T, in the front windows of their homes. I always wondered why they didn't use a G, like we did in Tooele. I've entertained the idea that Grantsville didn't want to be associated with Garbage, so they retaliated against Tooele by using a T instead.


Not long ago, Mighty mo took these photos at our local Santa Cruz landfill... perhaps the most picturesque landfill in the nation.
