I recently came across what I thought was a good deal at a neighbor who had no interest in a GH. It belonged to her DD who left it behind after a bad relationship. I have no idea what model this is, and also no idea where to start with covering it. It is 9X16, and previously had glass, but they broke alot of it, so I don't believe it was ever moved with the GH. I think I would like to use the twin wall, but the sizes it comes in don't seem to match the openings, and I'm not sure if the weight and rigidity of glass is needed to stabilize it.

I thought at the very least it could be covered with a continuous plastic sheet, and left on the ground, (I'm short!!) but it is meant to be mounted on 3 rows of concrete blocks. My DH thinks he could mount it on a treated wood base, but I'm concerned about moisture, and like the permanence of a block foundation.

So, I will post some pics, and hope all of you who have been there,done that, can help me. This may not happen instantly, but I need to know where to start.
