It was leading from an airport, but as I said previously, I
found myself on such a road when this conversation started,
empty treed lots right there on the road all the garbage
trucks take to the dump. There, I thought, I'll see tons of
bags in trees I never noticed. None.

Note that I'm not saying there aren't bags in trees, just
wondering why it would be so many.
