Rubber chicken, stat!
Dedicated members of the community turned out for the latest Napa River cleanup to find lots of items, some surprising, most expected. Among the regular array of cigarette butts, plastic, and trash were found a bicycle seat, driver’s license, pay stub and even a rubber chicken.
