Weekend Project

Well ... after the hammock ... and once I quit sleeping in it for hours each day ... don't I WISH ... hehehe ... then we started on a new front porch. Moving to this tiny two bedroom bungalow from our huge six bedroom B & B was tough. We are SLOWLY making changes that are making this place ours.

On the weekend, my daughter and son-in-law came and we built a new 8' by 8' fron porch.

As you can see, the former steps led under the windows that opened out ... with sharp corners at head height ... duh ... and the landing was barely big enough for ONE person to stand when the front door opened.

The new porch ... is not yet fully DONE ... ssshhhhh, don't tell Gene as he hasn't noticed this yet ... hehehe It will be done very soon.

AND ... I bought hundreds (literally) of shrubs, perennials, annuals, and bulbs to plant in a new ... and not yet designed or built front garden. It WILL be wonderful ... and will be done ... within two weeks. I am just waiting for topsoil ... river rocks ... mulch ... oh ... and TIME ... LOL
