I started it! I did, I did!

 No brickwork yet but I got a good start on the prep work. The porch is mostly finished. The wood was so damaged that I panelled over the old wood. I also built the porch foundation and added "wrought iron" porch supports to replace the damaged original posts.

 The door and shutters may become solid blue but I want to see how they look against the brick first. Some of the shutters didn't survive the original demolition so neither of the bays will have them.

 The trim is painted for all of the windows but not put in place yet. The bay windows will be white at the top and brick from the window sills down.
