The Porch is Finished!

I have actually been enjoying it

since mid July.

All the work was completed then,

except for the arrival

of a new door from the living room

onto the porch.

That got installed last Monday.

 So nice to see this summer's project

come to completion.

 This stone kitty, 

who actually belongs to my sister Nancy,

has found a corner for herself

for the time being.

I brought my porch furniture

up from the basement, 

where it has been waiting patiently. 

It used to grace the front porch 

of my Pine Street house.

I made new cushion covers

from an outdoor fabric

with a fun and colorful bird motif.

I love this sheep, but until the porch,

could not find a place for it inside the house.

So, it's very nice to now be

able to find a home for it.

What would a porch be without

a swing?

As I said earlier, I've been enjoying

the porch since mid July.

My favorite time is early in

the morning, watching my street

come to life as I have my first cup of coffee.

I think it almost looks as though it has always been there!

Now, time to start planning

for next year's

home improvement project...
