Out with the Old

These two sets of pitiful stairs have been the entrance to our house since we bought it five plus years ago now. Peter says it is like someone built the house and then said, "oh, how do we get into it?" And they proceeded to build the smallest, cheapest stairs they could.



The house has survived for the last 30+ years this way, but I'm happy to say that as of tomorrow we will have 'majestic' stairs as one friend calls them. Juan and his crew have been working for close to two weeks on more grand stairs and ones that don't let the rain sit on the porch like you can see in these photos. We are also having our patio enlarged and steps made down to the driveway from the backyard. Pictures of the new concrete coming soon.
