Packout mixture - 1 part masonry sand, 1 part dirt, a little water to make the mix a little slushy, then several handfuls of straw until the mix is thick enough to hold it's form. It took a few batches to get the mix just right. 

Then, you just throw a couple handfuls in between each tire and stick a bottle up. Once we finish, we will have to come back around with a second coat of mud to cover the bottles. We are focusing initially on the top row so that we can seal up the gaps where the cement for the bond beam will be poured.
