New Additions

We bought a green house


I've been wanting one for a few years

This is a map of the yard & the spots where it might go and the requirements:
Can't block sight of the barn or chicken coop
Needs to be close to water
Maybe close to electricity
Must be close to garden
Must be convenient
Must NOT be under trees
NEEDS sunshine


PINK is by barn runs, close to water & electric but block view of horses
LITE PURPLE was my 1st choice but blocks view of horses
LITE BLUE is everything but too shady
PURPLE too far away

We're going to move the two raised beds on the right and move them to the bottom left 
& put the green house on the right. 
That way we can see the barn, horse runs & coop, 
its close to water, electricity & house and get plenty of sunshine.


The yellow circles are trees that need to be taken out and they still will but we're taking out the fence first and thats happening as I write this. 
I'll be taking out the first raised bed after I'm done with this blog and when I finish watching 
Catching Fire on Netflix


Heres the Green House as it arrived, its 8 feet long and about 200 lbs


Here is another view of where it will end up and the two beds we will move. I'm going to shovel the dirt into the other beds and use it to fill in holes in the ground; the ground has sunk since we have moved here and that might be from buried stumps.


The fence around the back yard was here to keep the dogs contained was here for 8 years but John Henry died and Havva is old and the fence rotted so its being removed. 
The two beds are being moved parallel to the two on the top right and the green house will be on the bottom right 


I'm planning on hanging lights like this in it so it will be cute
