okienurse said...: Lookin good! I need to paint mine but think I will call someone to come do it. I used to do it myself but don't have the balance to be on a ladder anymore. The tornado hit here in Norman last Friday but luckily decided to lift about a block from out house. It made a mess of some parts of town but thank god it didn't hurt anyone.; 4:41 PM, April 15, 2012

Elizabeth said...: What I'd give to have a porch (and house) like that. When I was out there studying in Massachusetts the gorgeous verandahs attached to the beautiful wood clad houses were something I couldn't help admiring. Love your very natural looking garden too - looks a perfect place for Bleubeard to strut his stuff :)

I learned from Julia today that you are in the tornado area, but, thank goodness, you are okay and it bypassed you. Such a relief for you but devastating for those that were hit. Take care, my friend.
