The Porch Party~

Porches have been a gathering spot for centuries!
Down south people can be found shelling peas and sipping sweet tea!
People wait for and welcome guest into their home from the porch!
Front porches are a place to gather with the neighbors and visit to catch up on news! (No gossip allowed)
Welcome to my porch and my blog!
