Today’s Build Day ended up being quite short, much more than anyone would’ve thought. The early birds of our group congregated with “Good mornings” and “How have you beens” as we briefly went over the general plan for today.
Last week, we had wrapped up the inner walls of the greenhouse and, now, we were ready to secure the dome to it. We held Build Days quite early, so we had to open the garden up as the first people there. The few of us walked to the back and opened the gate, but then the chirping of the birds filled the sudden absence of our voices and footsteps as we all stopped to look ahead in confusion. Something was definitely off and what we all thought in our heads, but Aman actually exclaimed, “WHERE IS THE DOME?” It had mysteriously vanished. The walls that we just finished were thankfully still there, but it lacked the rest of the greenhouse’s structure. We split up to look all around the garden in the hopes that it was just moved by others, but our efforts were to no avail.
As the rest of our group arrived one by one, we entertained ourselves by capturing their reaction on camera. We were all stunned by this disappearance, but in our survey of the area, we noticed missing steel from the welder, so it was probably a junkie who lifted the dome. Likely a pair or even a trio, really. Since we could not continue work on the greenhouse without the dome, we let everyone go for the day, marking the shortest, yet maybe the most entertaining Build Day for a while.
Grow with the flow!
