The new deck/patio/covered back porch...

No matter what you call it, it's pretty cool. Literally. It keeps the house much cooler as the back window is shaded from the afternoon sun. Right now Mark is finishing up the stain. Then we'll have to put the grill and furniture back up there. But right now, it's like a giant dance floor and it's tempting to leave it empty for awhile so we can just enjoy it's "bigness".
