WHO GUESSED GREENHOUSE?
Success!
What a huge blessing! After about six hours of driving, we made it to our location in Oklahoma! There, in the field was the gift, just waiting for me! If you saw my previous post, you know that @bluerthangreen and @papa-pepper were heading out to receive a blessing from another steemian today!
A beautiful 22 foot wide and 60 foot long greenhouse was just gifted to the @papa-pepper tribe by @weetreebonsai! Can you believe it? I hardly can. It was well worth the trip and work to receive such a blessing!
GET IT DOWN AND LOADED
Soon we were hard at work. The sun had rose and the day was getting warmer. The work not all that difficult, but we had the right tools for the job. With three support beams and thirteen ribs to disassemble, we got to work!
Taking down the frame went smoothing. Working together as a team we quickly found our rhythm and started getting the pieces loaded. Thankfully the pickup and dump trailer was the perfect choice for transport too!
With two minds to come up with the best plans and two capable individuals to get the job done, it actually took less time that I had planned. We have learned often enough to always budget extra time if need be, so at least we get to start our trip back in the sunshine.
HMMMM.... WHAT ABOUT THE FOOTINGS?
We had two options with these. The pipe to hold the greenhouse still was secured to the earth with concrete footers poured around it. Cutting the metal off at ground level could get the job done, but the pipe would be short and the mess that we left behind would not be the best.
As you can see in the photo above, we chose to uproot the entire footings, concrete and all. We then filled in the holes and tidied things up. As I looked at the loaded trailer, of course I rejoiced at the blessing that I had just received, but I realized that I forgot something.
That's better! I can't forget to load up my helper, @bluerthangreen! His family would not be too impressed with me. Plus, I have the impression that he'll come in handy later.
Please join me in thanking @weetreebonsai! This was an amazing gift and such a blessing to receive. I am so blessed to know you and glad that steemit has been used to bring us together! Thanks Sister!
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

Until next time…
Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com
Glad to see it was not hard work for you kids, and Yes when God says to bless someone you do (he is the Boss, ya don't tell him no!). I can foresee many seeds started and seedlings growing to feed your families in the future. Drive safe!
Way to live out your faith for all of us to see! And what you said about when God says to do something you do it can be wrapped up in James 4:17 "Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin."
If I failed to live out my faith for mankind, God would know me not.
See even coming to steemit was a reward from God for a year of living hell at YT.
He knows my heart and placed me among more of my peers (real humans not intent on destroying others). When you are blessed you in turn bless others.
God said this item would be a blessing for one who is following and he picked @papa-pepper and I just did as he said...
Wow, humbled.
We serve an awesome God my friend... He moves mountains and divides the sea, never forget all he will do for you...
Well said..AMEN!
I think it'll come in handy for many years to come!!!!!
Yes and in a pinch it can house critters ;-)
That is the truth "when God says to bless someone you do (he is the Boss, ya don't tell him no!), I can't imagine He'd take "no" for an answer from any of us even if we tried, especially since He didn't take it from Noah, Moses, Jonah, or any of the others in the Bible. :D
I know @ papa-pepper will get a lot of use out of your gift and he will pass on the blessing to so many others, because that is what he does. :D
God bless and have an awesome day! :D
You got it right there! It's amazing how all things work together for good. Romans 8:28. May God send many blessings your way too!
I am being blessed more each and every day!
God is good!
Always and all the time!
@weetreebonsai...you are one amazing person!!! Wow! What a blessing!
And how cool is it that the Steemit community is working together!?!?!
Incredible Journeys. Wonderful good hearted gifts are well deserved. Thanks for sharing this interesting day of yours. A whole greenhouse. You are really building a beautiful home for you and your family down there and it is a great example for many of us what is possible if we just keep believing in ourselves and receive the love and help from others. Good luck with the greenhouse back at the homestead. Stay free.
Speaking of helping others, I am humbly leaving a link here to this week's St Louis Steemit Bitcoin Meetup #3. I am hosting these in St Louis about each week. No presh, but maybe one of these weekends, you and the peppers will be passing through St Louis. Maybe you'll come by for work, or maybe you'll just be visiting the zoo or catching a Cardinals game with the family. Either way, there is an improviser here that runs a bunch of charming AirBnB's near the Botanical Gardens that are not far from The Improv Shop. So just lemme know when you'll be passing through. I'm hoping to get back on discord and telegram and all that jazz someday soon, but til then it's steemit and old facebook/twitter mostly. Congrats again on the Greenhouse. And here is the link to our event this week. Be well ! https://steemit.com/life/@jacobts/st-louis-steemit-bitcoin-happy-hour-3-invitation
Cool, I was just there 2 weeks ago, but heading back in January if not sooner. I appreciate that!
Good job, keep it up
Now you need to clear some land (to get full sunlight), level a spot, bring in water and electric, and set it!
