Day Two Sept. 26, 2010 Access 33 south 74 cigarette butts

This was my second day of doing the 20 minute walks on the beach to pick up cigarette butts and other litter.  I found today rather interesting because yesterday was Big Sweep and I hoped for a clean beach, but there was still much to be found.  I was by myself today, so I did not collect as much  as when I was with my husband, but here is my loot:

I walked access 33 (Blockade Runner) headed south today.  1 lb. 7.1 oz.
74 cigarette butts
7 bottle caps
5 straws
1 wiffle ball
1 mini New Hanover Wildcats basketball (the kind they throw out at the game)
1 unused large black garbage bag
1 walmart plastic bag
4 styrofoam cups
1 netting (the kind that beach toys are packaged in)
2 ziplock bags
1 cigar tip
3 balloons
1 hat
1 plastic spoon
1 plastic bottle
other bits and bobs

There was more to be collected, but I had ran out of my 20 minutes and it was time for a swim before the rain came.  I am so thankful for the rain because my herb garden needs it and one of my rain barrels is completely empty.

Day One Sept. 19, 2010 Access 32 South: 142 butts; 20 bottle caps
