Greenhouse Cleanup

I've been getting to work on the Yard, Fence, Garden, and also the Greenhouse lately.  Over last weekend I cleared out that crap that had accumulated in there.  I lot of it was just junk I had accumulated to work on, someday.  Well, it's in the way right now, so I pitched a lot of it.  The Scrapper guy was very happy.
This has been a work in progress over the last 15 years.  It has had many different objectives from sprouting new plants, overwintering mature plants, and ultimately a storage shed for my lawn and garden equipment.  Now I am changing its mission back to grown plants.
There is still a lot of work to do.  I want to add a gate between the Fence, and the Greenhouse to prevent Harley from going around the Greenhouse into the Garden.  Also, I want to replace the white door with a Cedar Gate that is stained like the Walls.
The Greenhouse is already integrated with the Garden Fence.  So, eventually the Greenhouse is an integral part of the garden.  If you haven't noticed there us a little problem with the top of the Greenhouse.  That plant that is completely covering the Greenhouse is a Trumpet Vine.  It is highly prolific, grows like mad, and I am beating it back continuously.  It is fixin to get a serious trimminz...
At one time the Greenhouse had a Plywood Roof.  The Trumpet Vine grew roots into the Plywood, and the also The Weather destroyed the Plywood Roof.  So now only the Trumpet Vine branches are the Roof.  I'm gonna have to fix that.  It looks neat at the moment, but leaks like a Colander.
All of the Frame of the Greenhouse is built with Pressure Treated Lumber.  So, the Bones of the Greenhouse are stable, and strong.  Most of the work I will be doing is superficial, and the structure is stable.  It's Springtime...  More Tilling Required, and Wood Werkinz...
