Harrisville, MI(Zone 5b)

LOL!! Thanks all!!! A few years ago,I replaced my Heater and A/C,I got a size up on both,so it is heated and has air,I may be able to grow a Sang now with air.
I sat out on the porch last night,we had a strong storm,it was great!!
This is the back porch,the wood was bad,and needed work.

You have been a busy body havent you?
I converted 1/2 of my garage into a sun room. But still does not get enough sun. So will add some solar panels to the roof this winter.

Foley, AL(Zone 9a)

Been involved in building a cabin on a lake and did all the sheetrocking with only the instructions on the side of the can! (Silly me.. I said "Sure I can do it!) So I KNOW how much work has gone into your improvement and how proud you must be. It looks inviting and wonderful. Enjoy!

Harrisville, MI(Zone 5b)

Thanks all! I did help with the deck,but the Sunroom was done by Champion,all I did was sit back and pour Icetea.

Ellicott City, MD(Zone 7a)

WOW! Your new addition to your house will be well used. You'll love to sit in there and your Brugs will appreciate all the sunshine they will receive there during the winter months. It looks great and gives you so much more "livin' space"!

I can top both Mary's & Susie's offer for FREE construction work.....all the CICADAS you want to take back to Kansas with you!!! You can cook them 100 different way and they also make great bait for your fishin' pole!!! :~)

Des Moines, IA(Zone 5a)

Great new addition Root &
it looks like you don't
have much back yard to mow.

To bad you couldn't have
talked NASCAR into building
their race track just over
your fence, That wouldn't
go over to good with the
wife.

Harrisville, MI(Zone 5b)

Rebel the track is not far,we can hear the fireworks and the planes fly over.they have it set down in a bowl,so you can't really hear the cars.
Shirley,I have heard they are a mess,we get a few here,nothing like you or Shirley in Iowa had.
DW just got me some pots for the deck,I will put up a pic when I get plants in them,gives her a whole nother reason to shop!LOL!

Linden, TN

That is one beautiful sunroom .... You did a fantastic job... looks nothing like it did before.... Totally Awesome....
