I Wish I knew Her Name
 

I wish I knew the name of the woman who was traveling on Belvedere heading toward the Bonnybrook gate at about 8:45 AM today (6/1) in a dark blue EZ GO cart. I wish I knew her name because I would list it here and let people know that she apparently thinks so little of her fellow residents that upon finishing her apple she tossed the apple cord in the road.

This apparently is becoming common place on golf courses also. I watched as one guy ate a banana and threw the peel to the ground at Belmont and on another course found an apple cord . In both cases I played clean up and moved the trash to the trash. I even found peanut shells on the green at the par 4 on Sandhill.

My wife and have come to refer to these folks as "special people". They do not have to adhere to socital norms or rules like the rest of us.
Of course they especially do not have to rake sand traps or stop at stop signs.

I wonder what they would do if we just confront them when we see them doing these types of things! Probably be indignant and tell us to mind our own business, but I wonder if they would think about it the next time they wanted to leave us their mess.

Give it a rest. Channel your anger into doing good for your fellow neighbor and world!

Apples are biodegradable, they are healthy to litter for plants, animals and the earth! It's science!

Throwing in a bag, is the real waste and litter! An apple comes from the earth for goodness sake!!!!!!

Which comes to my continuing position that the community continues to spiral downward because neither management, their employees or us as residents will become involved. The rules are no longer important, the deed restrictions are rarely enforced and the residents continue to push the limits on what they can get away with. The roads have increased litter, the golf courses are becoming less pristine with almost no confrontations by Ambassadors or starters. Maybe when we see someone throw the apple core we could pick it up and follow the offender and return it, or if fear of confrontation just follow to get the address of the offender. Until we are willing to "police" our community, it will continue to decline.

yep

Then lets just take all our biodegrade trash and dump it along the road so our plants, animals and earth can thrive. That would reduce those real culprits, the bags, reduce our landfills and return all the good stuff to the earth. Maybe that's the environment you want to live in......I don't.

It's raining, relax. It may have been an accident and she may have meant to throw it in the grass.
It's not something worth getting something so upset at this lady, you post about it. Life is too short to worry and stress over the little things. People will clean it, they get paid for it and nature always cleans up what it puts out!
:)

Dog poo is biodegradable also, so why do people get upset when other people let their dogs 'fertilize' their yard?.

I don't get upset, but I also don't have a poo poo outlook on life! :)

I actually confronted a person at the square the other night. The person tossed a cigarette butt on the ground just a few feet from a trash can. I asked the person to please pick it up and dispose of it the proper way. he did and said he was sorry. Cant say that will always happen, but it did in this case. If I see this again, I will handle it in the same way. Wish me luck.

Her name might be Eve.

Nah, Eve would have offered Rubicon a bite.

Yep just explain it away must be a politician. We have neighbors that when they have company they smoke out front and throw their butts on the street in front of our house.
