The Front Porch is Taking Shape

The front porch framing is well under way. As you can see, we're planning a wrap-around porch that will extend across the full front of the house and provide a path to the new "mud room" on the side of the house (great place for hats, coats, shoes, and book bags!).

The front porch is 8' wide across the front and is 32' long. The side porch is another 5' wide and 14' long. We're planning to use Azek (formerly ProCell) decking. The color will be slate gray. There will be eight 8'x8" round/tapered columns on the outside perimeter with railings between columns with a 62" opening centered in front of the main door.

I can just see us relaxing on the front porch, can't you?

Can't wait to see this finished!
