Finally catching up on the house blog-- here are photos from the porch renovation in summer 2010.  Bruce and Nate took out the drop ceiling, the fake pine paneling, and three layers of green astro-turf on the floor to uncover the original porch-- including a beadboard ceiling!  We installed new wainscoting under the windows put in a new bamboo floor, and repainted the walls and ceiling in white and pale green.  Now it's one of our favorite rooms in the house!
