Our Next Project!

 With so much time at home and so many mosquitoes in our neighborhood (thanks trees!), we decided our family would really enjoy a screened-in porch. It has taken several months of planning but the project is finally underway.

Here are the architectural drawings showing where the porch will be, relative to the existing house. Our basement walk-out needs some structural work and a new roof over it, so those problems are being addressed with this project too.

After an unplanned survey and two-week delay, work began this week! Here is the area before work started. The structure with white siding and a flat roof is being removed; it is covering the walk-out currently.

Here is how it looked after Day 1 of demo!

You can see the bowed wall in the last shot. Gotta fix that!

And after Day 2.

Hoping it is finished for when I host book club next month (that might be a bit ambitious...)!
