Thank you for that suggestion KVR.  Some one else mentioned that already.  No rebar on hand.  I am pondering linking it to the base of the fence possibly but the method is eluding me.  I will come up with a good resolution just need to think on it.  :)

As for the garden PVC Greenhouse I will cross over 1' PVC pipes to fix the base of the green house. ----x-----x-----x----x----

The green house frame is up and solid.  Still need to contemplate the building of the doors on both ends but it is a good build. 

 

Next task isrebuilding a racoon destroyed pond and the other raised bed.

 

The PVC green house build totaled about $70.00 in parts.  The top of the PVC frame was attached to a 6' fence using Zip Ties and metal screw hooks.  The portion of the frame that rests in the ground caused me to pause and think.  I took a  2' section of  2" and drove about 8" of it into the ground (Avoiding the sprinkler pipes) and then inserted the 1/2" Green house PVC frame into it.

 

Working inside the greenhouse got warm quickly and that 40F weather this morning was good.  :)

The one racoon in 1 night bit the heads of of 40 8" goldfish, 5 13" Koi, legs of of 2 slider turtles and a few crawdads.  The slashed the liner where it needs to be replaced.  He left 3 goldfish that I threw into the  smaller pond but he got them a few days later.  The small pond is still good.
