Every first Tuesday of the month, I picked up my box of gloves, jackets, hard hats, supply of trash bags, clippers plus a good supply of bottled water and head out to Box 383 (See photo below), along Highway One, about 3 miles north of San Geronimo along the Pacific Coast, just north of Cayucos, CA, to meet fellow Realtors for our monthly highway clean-up.
The exercise is a dedicated effort on the part of the members from the Scenic Coast of Association of Realtors. Member Realtors from different real estate agencies or brokerages and affiliates from title companies show up to help on different weeks. The coordinated cooperative leads to a cleaner highway and a more pleasing experience for the motorists and travelers who stop to enjoy the views by the coast.
At the end of the clean-up, we arranged the bags neatly by Box 383, and I contact Cal Trans to pick up the bags. You will surprised at the range of items that have been left along the highway. We found big itmes like sofa, tires, bar-b-que pit and even snakes! Of course, we left the snakes (obviously, the live ones) alone.
Doesn't the coast look more beautiful without any trash?
