Bay, I stole your idea last year and it worked GREAT!!! I had my first fully ripe tomato on June 1st. I plan on doing that again this year. I planted giant zinnias around the edges of the tires and this year I think I will go with some annual basil and other herbs.

And I am with you on the pain in the neck...I have all my tax papers ready to go with the exception of the Avon sales, but I'll be able to do that fairly quickly. I'll be taking mine in on Monday. Nothing like waiting til the last minute is there, lol. I always tell myself that I am going to do it as the year progresses...like each quarter and I do for the first, but then it snowballs and all i do is file the papers then at the end of the year I have a stack a mile high to go thru and figure out figures.
