On Friday, hubby and I got home from our monthly errand running to Dubuque to find our construction guy's trailer in front of out house. I'm so happy. We've saved to replace the front porch on our house! We have an 1854 old Federal house that hasn't had a porch in years, but we have old pictures of the porch and are now having it replaced. Our town is something like 85% OLD (by US standards, for our European friends!) and they're very cautious about letting you do something to your house that doesn't keep it within historical accuracy. As it happens to be, we have a few old photos of the house when it had a porch, so we got permission to build it. THen we had to stand in line because the people we trust to work on our old house have a lot of customers.
So ... in a week or so, I'll have an old-fashioned old porch on my old house.
