Plog Away!

The wind is whipping in NoCo today. When I had Walter the Wonder Dog out on an ill-advised walk, I couldn't help but notice how much trash has collected in the winter-dry irrigation ditch near my neighborhood. That reminded me of something my son told me about the other day: plogging.

The term is a portmanteau of "plocka upp" (Swedish for pick up) and, of course, jogging. I'm not much for jogging, but I can certainly try get into the habit of bringing a trash bag along on my daily dog walks.

I guess that will make me a "plalker"...?
