Building the back of the new greenhouse, part 2

On Saturday, I wrote out and posted pictures of starting to build the back of the greenhouse. This evening, I present part 2 of the build, finishing the roof.
This is where I left off on Saturday.

I didn't get any pictures of the roof until all the steel panels were up and screwed down. This is how it looked.DSCN7162.JPG

After that, the next thing to do was to remove the tarp from what had been the back wall, now covered by the new roof.

And another view. It's a mess back there...

Then for some reason, I decided that a gravel floor would be better than a dirt floor. That means shovelling out the top dirt and levelling the area, and then hauling in the gravel with my little trailer, 1/2 yard at a time, and shovelling it onto the levelled area.
It looked like this.

That's all the pictures that I have right now, more to come.
I have to finish the floor, and we have to put the sides on between the posts. I'll have another report when we've made more progress. I didn't work on it at all yesterday or today, I've been letting my back recover from the shovelling. This stuff takes a lot longer to do now than it did when I was younger.
