    March 5, 2002:
    Naked and embarrassed... but a putative peach!

    Gone are the reprehensible tin awning, the indefensible front door, and the execrable windows of the enclosed porch!  And for that matter, the dead hanging plants!

    What dramatically emerged was a putative peach of a house -- revealed are the gorgeous front door, and a beautiful window with original wavy glass.  Not to mention our contraband ADT home security sign, donated by a neighbor years ago in the belief, however misguided, that the best home security is imaginary home security.

    At this point the house looks a little naked and embarrassed, but it's nothing that an entirely new porch and a good paint job won't (eventually) fix.
