A Very Pretty Tire Garden and Miguel

"Hi my name is Miguel and today my classmates and I are planting plants in some tires that we filled up with dirt. The last two days on Monday April 16 and Friday 13 my class mates and I filled up some tires with dirt and some fertilizer for the plants.  Our teacher Mrs. McGehee bought a ton of plants that we are planting today there so much plants that I can't even name them.  The last two days Friday and Monday were very hard, getting the dirt on the truck and dumping it into about 43 tires but all that hard work is about to pay off when we finish planting the plants and they start to grow and I know it will turn into a very pretty TIRE GARDEN."

Miguel blogged while we planted.  He's always a great worker.  I love his attitude and his demeanor.

Ok now,

Let me take you through the process one more time....

And finally

This was a whirlwind project, but the final effect is amazing.  The pictures don't do it justice.  We could not have pulled it off if it wasn't for Mrs. Camacho, our administrators and the 150 to 200 students that got their hands dirty.  If you live in Palestine, you need to stop by and check it out.
