My dad owns a part of the canyon we live on and let me tell you, it's pretty disgusting. There is tons of trash everywhere, and even some clothes (but we also have hobos living there so that's where all the clothes come from)! I have decided to stand up and clean up this dump! Lots of critters live there so I'm pretty sure they'd appreciate it.
On the first day, I just started to pick up all of the big stuff. Clothes, chip bags, anything that I was able to see easily was picked up, and thrown away. Although I only worked for about 30 minutes, I was glad at the amount of trash was in my black bag. The canyon had already seemed to be a lot cleaner, too.
The next day I really got dirty. I picked up all of the small stuff, and endured a lot of back-breaking manual labor. We actually had a slide that we used to use when we were little, but now it was invested with spiders, and other creepy crawlies. I sprayed it with water, and brought it up to our backyard.
On the last day, I didn't do much but just tidy up. I just found remnants of trash and threw it away. After I was done the whole place looked a whole lot better than how it started out, geee I wish I had a camera.

Wow! That's some strong, hands-on work. Excellent work! I wish you had a camera, too, but I bet your accomplishments are clear in your head.
