This picture shows the whole back porch, hallway, and gazebo. The back porch is about 15 ft X 19 ft. The hall way is 5 ft by 10 ft and the gazebo is octagonal and 14 ft across at any point. It is all totally screened in, and has two ceiling fans, plus lights.
This is another view of that whole area. You can see Denis inside the porch, assembling some new patio furniture we bought. No pictures of that yet. In the foreground is our bonfire kettle which we use often. It was a housewarming present brought to us six years ago by brother Walter and we really appreciate it.
This is a close up of the gazebo so you can see the shape of it better. I got the idea for a gazebo from a magazine article. Theirs was not attached to a screened in porch but sat at the end of a deck. I like ours better.
Close up of back porch and gazebo. The gazebo is on the west end of the house. The porch faces north.
In this close up of the back porch, you can see into it better. There are French doors leading into the house and the double windows are above the kitchen sink.
This view taken from inside the porch shows the French doors and windows more clearly. The inside and outside of the back porch and gazebo are wrapped in locally grown and milled cedar.
When I took this picture I was standing in the hallway, shooting toward the screen door intrance to the back porch. We plan to treat the cement floor with an acid stain, but that's one of the projects on the back burner.
This is the entrance to the back porch from the patio area. I was standing in the mud room when I took this shot. The walkway to the back porch from the mud room is not covered. Some days that seems like a mistake, but mostly it's ok.
The following picture is looking into the gazebo from the back porch.
And here's a closeup of the gazebo, which is where we do our sunset watching. We enjoy it so much and every time we are there we can't help but say "Isn't this nice. Aren't we lucky."
The black blob on the floor is Nigel's hair. This is where I do most of the dog grooming.
