I would make your paths and walkways around the outside edge, where you have the least height...

Looks like fun! I bet you can toss another 6 mil over the top and go into December with some heaters. I think the single ply will get you through October.

Greenhouse supply stores have all that stuff, like Tekfoil. I use Growers Supply and GreenhouseMegaStore.com. I'm sure there are others.
