Not littering is a function of
upbringing. I've seen people drop trash on the ground next to a waste container. Thankfully not here, yet. |

More people, more litter. The Villages is growing very rapidly.

could you tell if it was a Poland Springs plastic water bottle or a generic Publix's brand?

Since pandemic start when out walking I take a plastic bag and pick up discarded masks. Bending is great for the waistline. Keeps the critters safe from getting caught in the earloops. Use the bag or a glove to protect self. Personally the schools could use litter pickup as a form of community service. Get those youngsters moving and away from the screens. Remember only humans litter. Animals don't.

I think it highly possible that the runner picked up the plastic bottle on the way back. I have not been a runner for years, but I remember that carrying something while running is a pain. I would very likely have set an empty bottle down and picked it up on my return home.
In my neighborhood, LOTS of people walk their dogs down the street. The dogs do what dogs do on random lawns and the walkers pick up the poop. No lawns seem to suffer! That said, your lawn is your property. If you do not want dogs to poop on it, you could put up one of those little hunching dog signs and all dog owners will respect your wishes. Please consider this a plea. We are all retired now. Some folks lighten up, others tighten up. Relax. Cut your fellow man a little slack. If someone is harming you, by all means, speak up. But, if your neighbor is guilty of not living life to your standards try to ignore it. We are all old now. Soon enough God will have a little chat with the guy who let his dog poop on your lawn. You can rest assured he will deal harshly with the guy who didn't pick it up. |

I would have picked it up and ran after him and told him he dropped this

owners of pets should let their pets pee and poop on their own property and then take them for a walk. don't blame the pet, blame the owners walking them.

I am actually amazed how low the litter is around where I live.
As a snowbird I have another place to compare with. Here if I see litter, say driving down Buena for a game of lawn bowls. When I return it is gone. Some nice person on the multimodal path, or a landscape worker, has picked this up. In my northern residence I think no one but me picks up anything. More littering and less trash pick up.

Recently I was waiting for an outside table at Red Sauce and a lady let her bull dog lift its leg to pee on the pillar at the front door of the restaurant.

Well on a positive note, pee is biodegradable.

Someone let a large dog poop on the concrete at the entrance of the swallowtail mailboxes in monarch grove the other day. I wish there were cameras to find this thoughtless, ignorant loser of a human being. It was disgraceful. They don’t deserve to own a dog.
