Since there has been no attempt to clean it up, I scaled the fence today and filled a large bag with the trash. A lot of it is unwanted free monthly newspapers (Lady Lake News - a quality read, if you have no brain) in plastic bags, plus the spikes that hold the "Lawn Just Treated" signs beloved of Massey et al.
Good Job, pat on the back. Sometimes we just need to go ahead and do it.
