It's already a week ago that I left home guzzling cans of diet soda along the way to Chicago. I took a foray into the Georgia and Tennessee mountains before getting back onto the Interstate system again.
The recycling report from I-75 in Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky is glum. I found no recycling bins at rest stops. These two photos are from Indiana where the Hoosiers demonstrated ingenuity.
#1 Weathered but working, this rest area in Indiana had the first container for can recycling since I left Florida. The hole designer was pretty precise about accepting only 12 oz. cans.
#2 Not sure what they were thinking with the chimney chute here. Cans were stuck in it.

I suppose living in Indiana I have never given second thought to our aluminum can holes. For some reason we love to cut up trash cans to fit only certain things. You apparently missed out the the ones made just for plastic soda bottles and the slits just big enough for a few sheets of paper.
Are we really that different here? Does no one else really do that?

I appreciated the recycle bins I found along Indiana's highways. Each was unique and each that I saw seem to be someone's own invention. They conveyed a community commitment to come up with solutions. Either clever farmers accustomed to solving problems while in the field, or budding engineers. Good people.
