Dang, is there anything you guys don’t know? Ask a question, get great information, love it.

I’ll crawl under the porch and see if I can tell what’s up. I will need to clear a path. The seller squirrelled away every piece of lumber, length of pipe, scrap of flashing, etc down there. I hauled out 200# of steel pipe and got it taken for scrap. Threw out lots of PVC pipe, duct material, old bed frames. I have almost made room to get in there. Old hoarding coot. I also denailed the better studs I pulled out of the walls and put them under the porch. Oops.

I eventually want to figure out some way to “winterize” the porch for the rainy season. Could be as simple as thick clear vinyl curtains or as nice as insulated panels and windows that somehow bolt on and unbolt off. I figure there’s seating for 15 on that porch.
