Celebrating on a Porch! Last week we stayed with friends in a house that had a screened in porch. I was amazed at how sitting in the shady space, transported me back in time. I've never lived in a house that had one, but I have fond memories of my grandmother's porch. Just a few days ago, I spent a good part of the morning, sitting on this porch. I sipped coffee, read a little and reminisced about "Daw's" porch. No Photos I have no pictures of "Daw Daw's" screened porch, but my drawing shows her front porch. We stayed with Daw, the summer I was 6 and I spent a lot of time in the cozy screened porch, in the evenings. We sat on the cushioned, wicker furniture and played games. The sound of cicadas surrounded us. Sometimes the lightening bugs would lure us out, from our mosquito-free porch. But the safe glow of the light through the screens, always brought us back. My little porch celebration has made me more determined. Someday, I will have my own screened in porch!
