The screened porch that Keith and I framed! It took all weekend and we almost killed each other, but it's finally up!

Keith carrying the cypress beam that his grandfather, Pete, is giving us to use as our mantle. It is a hand-hewn beam that was cut approximately 200 years ago.
Mr. Pete Rumfola and Ross Rumfola cutting the beam to size
Mr. Pete sands the ends of the beam. We put the beam back outside after it was cut so that the newly exposed parts would weather like the rest of the beam.
Some lights we found in Pete's barn. The green enameled one came out of the Port Allen Fire Station. It was the first building he tore down in the early sixties -- it's been in his barn since the day the building was torn down. It will hang above the sink in our kitchen. The other 2 lights came out of the building at the Port of Baton Rouge and have globes made out of explosion-proof glass. We have no idea what we're going to do with them, but we've put them in our attic for safe-keeping.
