Litter pickup

If you see a bunch of people picking up litter along Route 82 in West Marlborough the morning of Sunday, Oct. 27, they're not convicts doing their community service; they're volunteers from the Buck & Doe Trust doing their part to keep our  countryside beautiful. You are welcome to join them; assemble at 8 a.m. at Doe Run Village. The cleanup takes no more than 90 minutes, it's a pleasant walk and it's always interesting to see what bizarre stuff people have deposited along the roadside.
You also get to experience just how fast people drive along Route 82. I frequently cross the road in front of Hood's, and I'll be curious to see if the forthcoming 30-mph limit through Unionville village (reduced from 35) slows them down at all.
