UNBELIEVABLE: Today, near one of our livestock waters on BLM lands I found where some asinine soul dumped a large bag of trash, a small mini fridge, and two old microwaves. I simply can't understand how any persons would be so slovenly, inconsiderate, and downright irresponsible as to defile this beautiful place we and our animals and wildlife dwell. To be too lazy and cheap to haul their refuse to a nearby landfill requires a special kind of ugly.
The county sheriff's department has been notified and will be investigating the scene. I fervently hope they bust the varmints that did it. For my part, I will happily hand over a $500 reward for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of the perpetrators. Contact me or the sheriff's dept if you have info.
It would seem that the trash originates from a motel continental breakfast room, public apartment, studio room, or similar; especially in view of the sign that's still attached to the front of one of the microwaves. See photos.
I don't make threats. But if you're the jerk who dumped trash on our ranch (or if you know the jerks, pass this on), fair warning: I have a fast horse, a long rope, and a penchant for turning second-class critters into steers. Don't try it again.
