While walking the dog

I was walking the dog no more then 20 minutes ago up and down the street like i normally do. I made the turn to come back and a car few past. I heard the brakes squeal and they came to a stop from that i heard the scrap of plastic on road, and the crash that came from the tumbling object. As i drew near and smelled the horrid smell, i realized that what i was smelling was someones trash on the road. I put 2 and 2 together and now the noise was clear. What i had heard was people dragging the trash can down the road and then flipping it onto my neighbors lawn. I stop to talk to the sweet old woman about what i had seen. She went inside to tell her husband what had happened and i went to my house and dropped off my dog. After telling my parents what had happened i went back outside and started picking up the trash. The Woman ,Mrs Dot, is her name came out with her husband and we picked up the trash together. After getting all of it picked up we walked up the street and delivered the can back to the person to whom it belonged to, said our good nights and shortly after returned home.
