"Our plan is to move everything out and then (attempt to) move the GH off the base and over to the side a little ways... then we can move things back inside, to keep them out of the weather while we construct the new hoop house. "

Woo hoo!!! it actually worked... and I think this says a LOT about the structural integrity of a Rion greenhouse!

Here's the progression...starting from the initial preparation (we used pieces of PVC pipe for the "rollers") -- to the greenhouse being completely off the base.

However, now DH wants to move it 30 feet or so to what would be the left in the last photo... to get it out of the way of working on the new hoophouse. Sure, why not ... Rolling my eyes. . We decided to save that for tomorrow, but it really should be relatively easy compared to having to move it off the base... we just have to line up some planks and maneuver it to its destination. Or maybe we should just move it right into the garden and have 3 greenhouses in there! Hilarious!


Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!

Great job., I am really glad that the plan worked. I tip my hat to you.
