It's been a marvelous Springtime here on the land. So many things to be thankful for....smile. Robert's started on the wrap around porch covering, which will be painted white and the roofing will be the same copper metal. We've picked out the perfect blue for the porch floor - it's called, 'Gettysburg' and I cannot wait to start staining next week.
