everything in the greenhouse is now fully painted with primer. i am done with the primer! it took two gallons of primer. theres about an inch or so left in this second can.

caulking on the top of glass. it is really hard to get pictures of the caulk in focus.

we could have turned this post to avoid having to fill this hole with caulk

this post the hole went all the way thru, so it'd have been on one window or the other even if turned

shims were cut and glued into place on the upper south windows. (held in place with tape until the glue dried))

southwest corner. some planks on the red fence were removed. maybe some day in the future i'll move the fence post to the left. but for now i like the red fence where it is and dont want to take it down. so it stands as is. theres ALWAYS more projects...
