I bet a porch around the grain bin house would look SO amazing. Would you do a curved porch? I think that would be amazing.

When they have barbecues at night they string them up outside and when there is a power outage they get hung from the ceiling fans in the living room with some additional strings.<br />If you can find some of these battery operated lights they would look amazing in a tree to be viewed from your porch....very pretty. <br />MargaretPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12990336317308988689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-25774250526788272242016-10-27T13:57:03.976-05:002016-10-27T13:57:03.976-05:00The two ladies who live across the street from me ...The two ladies who live across the street from me were outside carving pumpkins last Sunday.
