It is actually snowing higher up today. Sigh. We could use this break after 17days of being on the roads. Our weather has been great up to now, so no complaints.<br /><br />Your porch is absolutely beautiful. I love every thing you have done. My wicker furniture is also thrift store finds and I painted mine tan. More of a mountain feel. Your flowers just make me want to plant more around our home. We have done all of our landscaping ourselves and it is a work in progress. Some things like the terraced steps to the lower deck and the dry river bed we hired done. I get ideas from my blogging friends and that would be you Diane.<br /><br />Well, we haven't had breakfast yet so we are off to find a good place to eat. I love this vacation. BIG smile.<br /><br />I have admired your home so much and your location is awesome. That's everything isn't it? <br /><br />Hugs...Jeannejeannehttp://backyardneighbor.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887026011030740030.post-58967297469097250692009-06-02T08:41:13.048-05:002009-06-02T08:41:13.048-05:00great looking porch..you did a great job screening...great looking porch..you did a great job screening part of it in?
