A quiet spot in the heat

It's not quite finished, but our new screened porch is completely useable at this point.  Even in this gosh-awful heat and humidity that we're having here in NC, sitting out here is tolerable, thanks to the ceiling fan and nearby trees. 
I want to be sure you see the stainless cable system we've used on this project.  Because the porch is over 30 inches from the ground, there has to be a chair rail and something protective/supporting beneath.  Many porches use spindles, like a traditional stairway or upper railing would have.  Instead, we used the stainless cable wire with these cool connectors at each end.  I LOVE this clean, modern look. 

Ciao,
Anne
