dumpster diving

hey, this is Steph :D
Today was the first day of Ichthus and the start of the CP recycling gig there!
We prepped all day yesterday and erected our AWESOME 12-ft tall bottle made out of PVC pipes and plastic fencing. (It looks good, set up on the main road leading to the main stage.)

But today I got to go dumpster diving...

Hami, Andy, and I took the gator (our golf cart) all over the Ichthus campground to the recycling bins we set up yesterday. And next to these bins are the dumpsters. Yeah, nobody has really been using the the recycling bins (you know who you are!) so...we did. Since Hami and I both have short arms and we couldn't reach the trash bags inside, Andy got them for us. Until he had to leave for a meeting. Soooo, we had to improvise!

It ended up with me getting into the dumpster can, passing the bags out, and then Hami and I would go thru them together. It was pretty fun, smelly, and there was SO MUCH recylables in the dumpster! I now have to sanitize my chacos, poor smelly sandals that they are, but for now it's back to Ichthus.
