| Cutting the tires in a basin of soapy water. The soap lubricates the tires so its easy to cut through the rubber and the clean tire is much more pleasant to try and flip inside out. |
In honor of my Dad's birthday today, I am posting pictures of our latest project, a tire garden that we put on our roof to provide us with some greenery. Happy birthday Dad!! Wish we could be working in your garden with you today!

| Melissa and Lizzy painting. |
 |
| Flipping the tire, this one took three of us. |
 |
| After painting we lined the bottom with a frame of sticks |
 |
| ...then we covered the stick frames with plastic grain bags to hold the dirt in. |
 |
| Here is our corn... |
 |
| ...and here are our flowers. |
 |
| We are hoping that the beans will grow tall and we can string them up to create a natural green wall to provide us with some privacy...I just wish they would hurry up and grow already! |
