Thanks guys . . . you're right . . . maybe I should go with red. LOL

Kay, that is awesome . . . That's kind of the color, maybe a little darker, more of a brick red color. But that gives me an idea and I didn't even consider that the stepping stones & rock around it would tie in too.

My plants will really look better next year. That bush under the window is a fast growing knockout rose bush and I think it can get about 3 foot tall and then on the end is a butterfly bush, and you all know how those get. It's still a baby, but eventually, it will take over I'm sure.

I might look for some little small shutters for that window . . . that would make it look better, I think. And then we're also going to get some sort of light to put at the top of the building. Looks like there was a ball goal there at one time. I think that will jazz it up a little bit.

Thanks for the advice everyone . . . I haven't asked hubby because he doesn't even think that I should paint it (even though it's starting to rot) and my parents were saying red, red, red . . . I was really torn as to what to do. I appreciate all the advice! PT wins again. I'll post more pics when it's done.
