Comming Soon - New front porch!

[skeeter@ccia.com]

Around these parts, you only need a permit for a porch roof if a neighbor complains you don't have one....found that out..zone officer said he passed my place every day and didn't give a hoot but after a zealous neighbor called him, he had to stop..could of made me remove the roof but just let me pay the $5 for permit....
Nothing was mentioned as to how you are to attatch the roof to the house....how much snow you get?....I used lag bolts one every foot to attatch 2x6 to side of house but snow got so heavy once right where the 2 10' 2x6 met in middle, is where mine let go.....dumped whole thing .....I should of put a post against the house right under the split ...na....never see that anywhere...just too much snow I guess... I am moving out of town to the woods again....yeee ha...only 6 acres but next to the state game lands and that 150 acre farm I tried to get Fabs to buy a while ago...will fence it in again and put a few horses in there...(something that makes its own gas)...but the view from the porch...yea..miles..we already own the place and now need to sell this one...house market sucks now..yikes....is hard keeping up with 2 places now..good luck with your porch...and many happy tmes on it.
