It's certainly a handsome room. I'd like to hear "My Snowy-breasted Pearl" on that Victrola. Staying tuned for winter developments.

Another old home project started, going to reinstate Gothichomes front porch. Pictures to follow.

Ok, a bit of a Waite but here is the porch so far.

I had a pro do the basic structure, I will be building most of the fancy stuff myself over time. Paint will have to waite, all but the roof is treated so will need to dry out before paint. Also waiting on the roof, had to go with a standing seam steel roof because I can no longer get the fancy shingles we have on the house😔
