I agree with you white wicker furniture and ferns hanging are so pretty. And just seem to fit in so well with a wrap around porch.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177567902195038229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201144666881866355.post-76663709441498066892018-06-14T18:06:45.301-07:002018-06-14T18:06:45.301-07:00I don't have a porch at all, just a stoop.

I hope you get your well-deserved new porch while the weather is still nice. :) Kari https://www.blogger.com/profile/02492014448139890827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201144666881866355.post-37680566315491351402018-06-13T22:41:50.271-07:002018-06-13T22:41:50.271-07:00I like your plants.

I like to hang a simple fern on my back porch---sort of Pippi Longstocking!<br /><br />I think you have some good ideas for your front porch. I don't know much about groundhogs, but my next door neighbor at the lake has had them under his deck, too. The important thing is to find out their life span, because they tend to come back to the same place all the time. We had opossums under our shed for years (here in the city). I was told no matter how you rid yourself of them, they will come back and burrow even deeper. But...they have a life span of 2 years. For some reason they've been gone for the past 5 years. I was always worried about my dogs. The whole neighborhood was coming upon dead opossum. I think they were living on stuff in trash cans in the alley. But no more. Maybe people started to get wiser about their trash. We don't have an alley, so I think they just found a safe haven under our shed. Next door our neighbors always get litters of bunnies!<br /><br />Good luck. Have a good base/foundation for your deck.<br /><br />Jane xBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.com
