Front Porch AppealPorch News and Ideas for Porch Lovers - Issue #38 September 2012September is when many of us wish to nest again. Back from summer vacations, children back to school and a nip in the evening air, we want to settle in again.Autumn is one of our favorite seasons, too. How about you? We absolutely love the feeling in the air - crisp leaves, pumpkins and corn stalks aplenty and time to think about autumn porch decorations. Dave and I are currently residing in a small apartment until we can find the home we want, but happily, we have a lovely little porch to enjoy. We hope that you, too, have a nice outdoor living space to enjoy.

Rather, Mary and I were featured on the national news last Saturday (video and accompanying article).They did a segment on "kitchen table" entrepreneurs, folks like us who run businesses from their kitchen tables. It was a fun experience and believe they did a nice job putting it together, albeit only a minute or so in length. 
We are in the process of moving and had just relocated to an apartment while we search for a new home with a larger porch when they asked for the interview. Everything is in storage - except our kitchen table from which we are creating this newsletter. We've received many congratulatory notes from around the country (and even China) and are very grateful for all of our porch loving friends who make our site possible.
