This was Stockbridge, in MA, right :-?

No, it was in Western Kentucky with a week or two of a family's garbage 
and maybe a worn out appliance or two.  No garbage pickup provided by the 
county; private haulers expensive; dropping much at the landfill both 
inconvenient and "unnecessary" given the availability of hard to find 
valleys and creeks.

I'd stick with:
***********************************************
You can't always get what you want            1
but if you try
sometimes, sometimes you get what you need.   2
***********************************************

1 ability to dump garbage where you want
2 a better appreciation for the environment
