Dear editor, I walk in our beautiful town of Napa nearly every day. The trash and garbage that is thrown along our streets and our town is so disgraceful.

I pass one trash can between Lincoln Avenue and Jefferson Street, one on First Street, and none at all on California Boulevard. Everything from dirty diapers to pizza boxes and McDonald’s cups and trash, you name it, is thrown down. Why aren’t there any trash cans along our streets? Maybe someone would use them.

Whatever happened to a broom and dust pan? I never see the street sweeper anymore, so you would think if you had any pride at all, you would clean up the gutters by your home or business. It just takes a little effort and time.

Our town is so beautiful. I’ve always loved Napa, so why can’t everyone help make it clean? Try to take care of what we have. It’s still the best place to live in the world.
