We returned from the lake Wednesday evening.

We’ll do a few projects, here at home, before returning to the lake next week.

One of our projects was the installation of a light fixture I purchased during our neighborhood garage sale, last weekend. If you recall, I traded two rugs for the lantern light fixture and a smaller fixture.

You can just make out the new back porch lantern, through the living room window.

J removed the ceiling fan and together we replaced it with the lantern light.  We are using a small fan on the porch and won’t miss the ceiling fan, at all.

We moved the round table, from our room, onto the porch. Originally purchased for the back porch, at a resale shop, we used it in our room over the past year.  It fits nicely beneath the lantern, leaving plenty of room.  We’ll bring a couple of ladder back chairs from the breakfast room, when we need them.

J, at about 6 feet tall, can walk under the lantern without hitting his head.

I set the table using odds and ends from around the house.
