Covington Countians take great pride in their homes,
whether circa 1890s or contemporary, and have a
natural tendency - handed down from grandmother's
time - to uphold the open door policy. The southern
front porch, where the indoors meets the outdoors,
seems to extend a welcome to family and friends to
come site and watch the world go by. Of course, the
veranda can also be a place of peace and solitude,
where you can idle quietly with thoughts or a good
book. At any rate, "porching," or the practice of
sitting on the porch in the evenings and
socializing, doesn't get any better than here in
Covington County.
