More on the AZ room!

I guess it was a little naive on our part to think we could just build around the existing frame of the room after removing the old worn out screen.  Not!

We wanted an enclosed room for more living space and we wanted to extend the length of the porch to have some space for the grill.

After tearing down the old screen and framing we found a lot of rotten boards so before long we had things torn down to pretty much just a few floor planks.  When I say we I am referring to Mr. R and my brothers.  My job is the vision and keeping them fed. J

Unfortunately I do not have a picture of what it looked like after the tear down, but this is one that shows how it looked after new deck boards where added and the porch was extended in length.

 

 

 

The prior porch stopped just before the window.  This picture shows that the new enclosed porch is starting to take shape! Framed up and windows and doors installed!

 

 

 

Taking shape even more!

A view after planting some bougainvillea.  We are hoping they will climb up the trellis and give us a big splash of color.

 

 

Next post will take us inside! Let me know what you think so far, please leave a comment.
