I appreciate all the words of encouragement! <br /><br />Mary, I agree it's better to wait than go into debt for it. <br /><br />Mari, I wish it could be done before really cold weather, but there are a lot of steps to complete the entire project, including new door, new windows, and new siding!<br /><br />Kris, definitely remember Rocky and Bullwinkle. :)<br /><br />Renee, it will be basically the same, but with new door, windows, siding, paint, and no screens, it will definitely look different. :)<br /><br /><br /><br />Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-21424914406165171452014-10-22T09:23:59.560-04:002014-10-22T09:23:59.560-04:00Will the new porch look the same as the old one, o...Will the new porch look the same as the old one, or are changes going to be made?Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-81357688181821978032014-10-22T06:11:08.848-04:002014-10-22T06:11:08.848-04:00Hokey smokes, Bullwinkle.

Hope the reconstruction goes as well as the deconstruction was. And does anyone else miss Rocky & Bullwinkle? Take care. :-DKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822528453563683772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-38033640144286457622014-10-21T22:30:03.367-04:002014-10-21T22:30:03.367-04:00You just do what you can, when you can.

Just take your time, look on craigslist and at the habitat for humanity stores for free or very in expensive supplies. Before you know it you'll have this job completed.

I bought a rental house from my son, and as part of the deal, he did a major renovation. He furnished the labor and I paid for the materials. I lived for about a year and a half with walls I could walk through (studs only) and then for another year or so with various stages of construction. It was so worth it, though, and I still have a low mortgage payment.MaryPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07213411584585483075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-67309359119264529172014-10-21T05:47:18.528-04:002014-10-21T05:47:18.528-04:00Leigh - this looks so great!!!
