Porch Progress


Here is the east wall of our porch, reconstructed. I am just finishing the siding today (Tuesday) after framing and sheathing it this weekend. This wall used to have a large screen above a knee wall but we need storage space so are rebuilding it as a solid wall. This will allow space to build a storage cabinet inside the porch. The other two walls will have windows where the screens used to be, sunroom-style.

This morning Lee Ann and I drove to Hamilton, Ohio (about 25 miles) to check out a place that sells garden architectural items, but when we got there we found out all their good stuff is in a warehouse across town and you can only buy it via Ebay. Sheesh. Yesterday we went to a Labor Day picnic with Lee Ann's Ebner relatives-by-marriage at a pretty riverfront park where the Licking river meets the Ohio.
