The Sounds Of Garbage Day
Some months ago, honestly I forget exactly when it was and am too lazy to look it up, our garbage pick up service was privatised by the city of Guaymas. It was a big deal here and there were protests staged at the city hall. It went through regardless. We have always had our garbage picked up 2-3 times a week and although there were some problems at the beginning, with the new company, the frequency of pick up continues. The company, PASA, has nice new trucks and does a good job; although they are not as conscientious about putting back the cans where they got them from, etc. as the old workers were. The important thing to us, is that they show up and they do their job.
The new trucks also have loudspeakers that play a "garbage song" to announce to you that they are coming. The music is, of course, quite loud. The video clip below, other than showing you our other street dog, is to mainly let you hear the "garbage song". It doesn't sound as loud as normal as I took it when the truck was about a block away from us yet. Hope you enjoy some more of our early morning sounds.
