Screen Porch

Looks like we need to replace some joists!

Rotten, rotten, rotten.
There have been so many house projects that I will take this opportunity to catch people up. Tonight, we will focus on the Screen Porch. When we moved into the house, a Dutch Colonial, it was evident that the screen porch off the living room was going to need to be rebuilt. After 4 years, we decided that we couldn't rebuild everything, so we had to settle for refurbishing. This past late summer/early fall, we did just that. We decided to wait until next spring to build the door and put up new screens because we stack firewood on the porch in the winter. The entire process took us about 2 months worth of weekends.

Finished!
