\"Steps
Steps from cabin and garage<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When I first bought the log cabin, I wanted some kind of roof over the steps. I explained to my brother that I wanted some way to get from the house to the garage without being rained on.<\/p>\n

He brought me an umbrella.<\/p>\n

When we visited Hilton Head Island last time, I saw a house that had solved the problem.<\/p>\n

A Covered Walkway from the House to the Garage<\/h2>\n
\"Farmhouse
Farmhouse style house on Hilton Head Island<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Right at the corner where we turn to get to where we stay, is a new house. It is sort of a combination of Farmhouse and Craftsman style.<\/p>\n

\"Farmhouse
Farmhouse style house on Hilton Head Island<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The white siding and metal roof details gives it a decided Modern Farmhouse look, at least to me. There are a lot of trees in front of it, so it’s hard to get good photos.<\/p>\n

\"A
A covered walkway from the house to the garage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

They have built a covered walk from the front porch to the garage door.<\/p>\n

\"The
The roof over the covered walkway where the steps lead off the front porch.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is where it comes off the front porch.<\/p>\n

\"The
The covered walkway where it meets the garage door.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The walkway goes to a door in the side of the garage.<\/p>\n

\"They
They matched the roof pitch over the window, the porch and the roof over the covered walkway.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is another view from the side. The walkway fits perfectly with the house.<\/p>\n

\"This
This is where the roof over the steps comes off the house. It has it’s very own gable.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is where the roof over the steps comes off the house.<\/p>\n

\"The

Here is where the roof is supported as it meets the peaked roof over the walkway.<\/p>\n

\"Where
Where the two roofs come together<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is another view of where the two roofs come together.<\/p>\n

\"The

The walkway turns a corner to go into the garage.<\/p>\n

\"The

This is the roof where the walkway makes the turn.<\/p>\n

\"The
The walkway turns a corner to the garage door<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And here is the roof where it ends over the garage side door.<\/p>\n

\"They
They managed to make a roof too keep you out of the rain from the house to the garage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here is another view of the whole thing, the roof over the steps to the covered walkway to the garage.<\/p>\n
