Ready for Spring!
 
1 Attachment(s)
I was looking thru my photos and found this one taken last year of my sister on my screen porch. We take the sewing machine out there & enjoy the weather. I think it's supposed to get to 10 degrees today...
Usually like the cold weather, but I'm ready for spring!

I could go to sleep out there. With the exception of cooking and bathing, I would spend my whole day out there weather permitting.

Nice to have someone to sew with. Your porch is wonderful!

Ditto to all of the above. I'm also ready to see Spring. Will be taking the camper up to the campground in Harbor Beach in April. I set up a screen room so that I can sew outside. People come by to see what I'm working on, and also just to chat. Enjoy being outdoors.

If we didn't have winter, we wouldn't appreciate spring. Come on Spring!

That's a great looking porch.

Beautiful...what do you do to protect that beautiful wood from Michigan's hard winters?

The porch is composite decking & aluminum. We enlarged & screened in a small porch several years ago. I had them put in electric outlets several places. Then I went to look for a large teak/outdoor wood table. They wanted a zillion dollars! I looked on craig's list for a Danish table like we have in our DR, the legs are solid teak. Found one for $100. We cover it when it's on the deck (that big thing behind my sister is the cover). In the winter, we bring it inside.
