    Yup, looks just like mine except I used a carport as my frame and then bought my shade cloth as a remnant from FarmTek (much less expensive). I also installed micro-sprinklers on a timer that come on every day. I keep my vandaceous plants in it. Oh and the whole structure is tied down to concrete blocks and the shade cloth is attached with bungee cords for easy removal in case of a hurricane.
