Wet Paint (187/365)

"We'll paint the town and the front porch too."

Unknown

TIME:  7:28 PM
PLACE:  The front porch
SUBJECT:  Fresh paint

After only 5 years, we are slowly creeping up on completing the front porch project.  Well, the porch itself...landscaping around it is another story.  And ok, ok, we still need to put the cap on the handrail too.  You don't want to rush these things. ;)  This morning I rolled a coat of paint on the porch deck.  HandsomeHusband is suppose to be sanding the steps so I can paint those tomorrow.  Then there will be a second coat that has special anti-slip granules mixed in so we don't fall on our behinds when it rains.  Hmmmm, now I'm going to need some new porch furniture.

This is such a neat photo! I love the lines and shadows in this one!!! I'm picturing a few wood rockers and a nice pot of tea on this porch.

How wonderful to have such a lovely porch. We don't have porches out in my neck of the woods. They seem so romantic!
