Default pictures of my greenhouse

Hi everyone, I just finished building my greenhouse. How does it look. It took me 2 years to complete. I started in October 2010 but I was not able to finish it before the snow started to fly. I tried to finish building the greenhouse in March 2011 hoping to have it finished before I planted any seeds. But that never happened the spring was wet and it was very cold. The portion that was not complete I put a large tarp over the unfinished portion, put in a space heater and that got me through the spring. This summer, I started to finish building the greenhouse only to discover the deck screws were not rustproof and this structure was going to fall apart. So I broke everything down to ground level. My neighbors thought I was crazy but I purchased the good screws built it even better than the original plan and now its finished. I am going to love this greenhouse when planting time arrives. I can place 64 seed trays x 18 seedlings per tray. The greenhouse is 8 feet x 17 feet (the inside dimension is a little smaller) but big enough for me. One of the pics shows my cold frame box that I have used for years. Now I have a real greenhouse.
