Shocked by People Littering Used Masks, Gloves in Burnaby

Please don’t litter used masks and gloves, good people of #Burnaby.
 
This is disgusting. And potentially dangerous to our community.
 
And remember: All Drains Lead to Fish Habitat.
 
All this crap would wash into Byrne Creek if my wife hadn’t carefully picked it up with tongs and disposed of it properly.

That drain leads directly to Byrne Creek, just a few dozen meters away. . .

Burnaby Urban Trail Ramble

Today’s maintaining physical distance walk.

To shake things up a bit we went beneath the Skytrain tracks from our place near Edmonds Station in SE Burnaby nearly all the way to Metrotown. The urban trail is wide, and in about an hour of walking we saw perhaps half a dozen joggers, three or four walkers, and only a couple of cyclists.

This stretch was eerily quiet, even for a Sunday. It’s usually parked up with movie industry vehicles. . .

Homemade Mask

The latest in fashion sewed by my wife Yumi. She even inserted a bendy metal strip on the top for a tighter seal. I can now go out in public after eating garlic sausage. . . Thanks, honey!

You will note the environmentally aware bumblebee pattern :-).

The advice on masks has swung back and forth. Yes, they may not protect you from the virus, but at least your exhalations won’t be floating around. . .  And some stores are demanding you wear one before they will let you in, eh?
