They just don't make 'em like they used to

One of our favorite things about old houses that you just don't see on new ones is porches big enough to actually spend some time on.  We are very excited about drinking coffee in the morning and nightcaps in the evening on the porch when the house is finished.  The porch is by no means complete, but I thought you might enjoy the substantial progress.

BEFORE
The porch was ridiculously uneven before we reframed it. 

Ah, sight of new wood that runs in straight lines.


How beautiful is that!
(For those of you with a discerning eye, the brick support in the left hand corner is being redone soon!)
