[Ag-eq] My poor greenhouse

[Jody W Ianuzzi]

OOh Tracy,

I am so sorry to hear about your greenhouse.  This has been such a miserable winter and it just doesn't end.

This fall  everything in my garden was eaten by rabbits and horses.  I guess that is what makes us farmers, the disappointmentsas well as the good stuff too.

I hope you can rebuild when the snow melts.

I thought at first it was only a couple poles that got broken, but, when I made it through the drifts to check more thoroughly, I found most of the support poles are broken.  I still can't get inside to make a complete inspection, because there's a huge block of ice sitting on one end, too heavy for me to move.

I was hoping the ice would melt enough for me to set it free, but, with more on the way, I think I'll have to prune it loose and cut my losses.  It's a tough rascal, though.  When it was young, the roofers dropped some heavy thing on it, and it came back stronger than ever.
