    My husband found these knock-out roses as they were being tossed in a dumpster. We have babied them for 2 years and it was well worth the dumpster dive.

    My husband built this in the backyard last summer.

    This has been his project this summer. It has been wonderful for family get-togethers. The sign is an old board I painted "Full Belly Barbeque--Home of Swine Dining".

    Your roses are an amazing testament to dumpster salvaging Lucy. What a show. I'm happy you were able to get your photos posted.
