The Merry Month of May

Ahhh May. . . my favorite month. Not only do we celebrate our anniversary, my birthday and Mother's Day; this month is the time of year we set up our screened porch. In the winter, this room is used for storing our teak deck furniture and outdoor ping pong table. But come May, it gets transformed into our favorite warm weather spot.

It's a simple room with very few furnishings. So once I washed the wainscoting and floor this week, it took me about an hour to get the porch in order. All that's left to do is to take the glass windows out and pop in the screens. But first I'm waiting for the oak trees in our backyard to finish dropping their oak dust. Last year, I put the screens in too early and then there was a fine layer of dust all over everything. And I am really allergic to oak dust! So we'll be enjoying those warm spring breezes in our back porch soon.

Isn't this a lovely time of year?

Yes, Susan it is a lovely time of year. No matter what is going on, it is hard not to smile when you are sitting on your screened porch, watching the bunny rabbits in the yard. I just love it! Susan

What a lovely space!

I am also waiting for the Oak pollen to stop dropping before I hose down the porch. It turns absolutely green!
