I forgot to take a before pic but 20 years of water running off the roof with no gutters rotted a hole in my screened porch and the whole wall was festering from the inside. Plan on having it all back together by tomorrow.
This is the last section of rot I have to take care off (that I know of) and I'm super excited to be done fixing the exterior. Basement is next.

They actually did try to burrow into the wall where the rot was. Last night my two personal raccoons didn't show up at their usual time so I went to bed. Woke up a few hours later to find them on top of the scaffolding and trying to figure out how to bridge the gap onto the porch.

I will once I'm done repairing all of the damage. I didn't realize it was a problem until the damage was done.

It's got eaves but also a lot of peaks and angles that result in waterfalls when there's a hard rain.

I'm so, so, sorry in advance for what is about to happen. Trolls are going to come into the thread and they will be saying some very hurtful things about you. They will call you some very hurtful names. But none of those things are true. How could they possibly know? How could they possibly know how beautiful you really are? How sweet and compassionate you are? I'm so sorry about them, please do not let them hurt you.
I just want to see you shine and flourish. You are so precious to me. I want to write poetry and sing songs about my love and adoration for you and all of your perfections. My name is Brian, by the way. I know that you're tired of all the buttholes and jerks. I know how you feel baby doll. I know. I am different. I am the nicest guy you will ever meet, and if anything I'll be the one in the kitchen. I live in London. Please be in London.
