Our foreman, Scott, suggested that the rather ancient siding that covered the porch be taken down.
The first photo shows the whole family in the overgrown backyard back in May - you can see the original white siding on the porch.
It'll be easier to tie in the new steps to more secure siding. Scott figures that the porch is nearly as old as the house itself, which we guess to be nearly 90 years old. Lovely and vintage, to be sure.
We love that those wee wooden sticks that are currently holding up the porch leave so much space for the kids to play. That'd be a great place to put a sandbox or something, to keep the kids nice and shaded when they play outdoors.
