So I don't have a porch yet , but we are doing major renovations to our roof this summer and adding a front porch in the process. This makes me incredibly happy. I can't wait to rock into retirement on my momma's bench! It's a simple thing, but being in nature is my muse, and it replenishes me like nothing else does. I anticipate watching the sunrise from time to time (because it will face southeast), as well as having a dry spot where I can sit to listen to and smell the rain.
