No, trust me, it was trash.  Much of it was with or in huge hefty bags
with leftover lunch, and obvious garbag, its in their trash area, and
Connie and Chase talked to the guy on Fri who was hauling the books
out....he said they were trash.
And if they are tossing perfectly good stuff out onto the ground,
helter skelter,  on a holiday weekend, when its going to rain,
and its NOT trash....
Well shame on them, and too bad if it gets taken.
Certainly its better that the man who took the cage for his birds
has it, then it gets rained on and / or smashed to bits by vandals...
Not to mention the 500 books....
