This hike was drive and walk mode, so I had a central hub to dump pockets and pick up more blue bags. Found a slightly torn blue bag in the stickers between the park and the school so took that as a sign to keep picking up recyclables. Filled it to overflowing in a few minutes, so stopped except for pre-flattened aluminum cans and plastic water bottles (especially one use plastic water bottles). I was unhappy that the water fountains weren't turned on at the park, as I haven't been packing water for a short stroll near my house in early spring.
The last item scavenged was a car repair mat, just when I thought my pockets were full. The irony is that this is not printed on plain, digestible paper, it's on a plastic fabric of sorts, presumably so the mechanics boots don't dig through the paper. It reads, in part:
WE HAVE TRIED TO KEEP YOUR CARPETING CLEAN WITH THIS PAPER MAT
...
IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE TO SERVE YOU
