New porch add-on (tear-off phase)

The most recent project wrapped up last week.  Here are some photos of the before and after.  Unfortunately I didn't think to capture this until after we had the old porch torn off, so all you can see here is the slab that we left in place, and a giant pile of debris off to the left.  Also, please note one tired helper leaning on a sawhorse.  Whew!

The existing porch was at ground level and had some water issues because of it being low.  Tearing it down we came to the conclusion that the slab was originally an outdoor porch, possibly screened in.  Later it had been closed up and made into an all-season porch.

My proudest moment of the tear-off was loading the entire porch onto a trailer, and successfully getting it to the waste management facility.    This is about 2 tons of stuff.  I didn't so much load it, as I stacked it carefully to lean toward the center and middle and then saved the large flat pieces to box it in.  Who said playing Tetris had no real world application?!
