As a toad bins throughout the alleys, digging in dumpsters in hope of find gold or anything else worth cash money, well at least there are bottles, during this struggling economy slowly working it’s way back to good health…

As a toad wanders the city alleys, nothing but those wonderful tags & graffiti..  i say great! Painting the city, fly by night beer festival…

A tagging limelight!

Some of those would be taggers, i love, whom travel or fair midnight city!  For those whom don’t know?  That would be, Vancouver British Columbia, Canada, planet Earth i would hope..  Or i’m really losing it…

Reason why they don’t want us binners in the alleys…

There are many reasons where they don’t like us binning in their alleys.  Most of all it would reason like these, spreading garbage and defecating in the alleys and around dumpsters that don’t help the issue.  However there are those of us in which do pickup garbage and do are best to not make any kind of mess or do things stupid like shitting in the alley.  If the need arises and I can’t make it a washroom, I do it in a box, and then throw away…  Simple you animals which cannot do the same…

Toad…

An unconditional friend…

This friendship could end if Ellen would somehow where see her lovely face on my Blog, however she has been a big part of my life always giving me a safe place to indulge in some of my guilty pleasure.  Ellen always has endless gossip yak about every time that I take to spend with her.  I remember year’s back that she made the best soup out a bin and in the back alleys as anyone could make keeping us warm and healthy through some of those cold winter months that street life brings to are lifestyle.  Where this woman gets all her bottles from I could not guess, I have yet to see Ellen climb into a bin…  The hardest thing that one has with Ellen’s friendship is giving back to her without getting anything back in return takes a real sly, tricking attitude.  You must be quick.  I have known Ellen for years and she is always one step ahead of me.

Renting space in somebodies head…

Apparently this binner does not like me, they have been spending their time painting these beautiful, colourful expression on garbage cans in the Fairview neighbourhood.  I would like to thank this person for the help in spread the name TOAD!

Something that caught my eye today…

Once again on the way to cash some bottles this afternoon came across these two items sitting on the bin behind Wends on Cambie in the Fairview neighbourhood.
