Our fall painting project was finished in a nick of time as the chilly gusts of October this week convinced us to get the screens off and the storm windows on the porch. Up until now, the porch has always been all white. Our tour of the remodeler's showcase last month convinced us to add some color to the paint scheme (Jersey Cream on the walls, pure white on the ceiling and trim) and we're pleased with the result. Birdie likes it too, as we got some nice solar heating in there today with the storm windows now screwed in place. 70 and sunny all day.
