Our house has a nice third floor (US) covered balcony that we don’t use that often. It’s accessed by two doors from the office and we put a conversational furniture set out there. Since it’s covered but open, it’s lovely in the winter and tolerable in the summer. However, being at the top of the house, furthest from the kitchen, it’s not ideal. Regardless, it’s Texas (pollen, general dust) and we also had the road outside replaced earlier this year. Added to that, accumulated general pollution from DFW aircraft and that I’ve not washed it down in three years, it’s overdue a washing…

So it’s looking much better now.

Overall, a relatively productive time.
