Where is 2nd grade going on their ONLY field trip this year- The Perdido Landfill- in other words the DUMP. As you can see, Emma is siked.
We parent chaperones had to drive our cars into the dump itself and up Mt. Trashorama. It was 410 feet high of trash. The 1st stop along the way, was the recycling area. This giant pile of boxes is hand sorted by only the finest orange jump suit wearing inmates, standing only a few feet from our kids. While a guard with a gun lounged with his feet up on the nearby forklift.
All 33 kids wanted their picture taken in front of the can squashing machine, which the tour guide told us was their version of Wall-E
A Wall-E Cube
Next stop, hazardous waste area. Let's stop for a quick picture girls, before we stick our heads in boxes full of rusty paint cans, live ammunition, yard fertilizer, and boat flares. Again please stand clear of the orange jumpsuit wearing people and stop taking pictures of them. Please stop talking about the smell in front of the employees and what ever you do DON'T call it a dump. Wow, last year's 2nd graders who went to the zoo and planetarium sure missed out on this trip. And wait there's even a goody bag to go home with kids, wonder what's inside............
