Default Porch Photos at last ..............

Hi Peeps, last year there was a thread on 'Porches' and many posters shared photos of their porches/decks, which I really enjoyed viewing. Mine was a work in progress, and I was asked by several of you to post photos, well, here they are. It is still a work in progress but we are almost there. I do hope you enjoy them and would welcome any comments/suggestions - the first photo is of my darling Channy who just happened to have 'snuck' in there, sorry they are rather large - I don't know how to edit them to make them smaller

Gorgeous! K hit the nail on the head when she said it is so "inviting". Channy is beautiful! I can not think of a better way to start your pics off than with your baby!

Keep me and K away from your flowers and plants or they will be brown.......she and I have a brown thumb!

Thank you all so much - we love it and enjoy entertaining on in it - now I prefer it in the fall where I add lotz & lotz of white lites, fall shrubbery etc.etc. be glad when it's finished (when we have to money to replace the remaining fences), but we get so much enjoyment out of working it (and out of our baby Channy)
