Hide and Go Seek: Thursday Doors, Nov 24, 2016

With men everywhere in the house tiling, it was inevitable that the doors would have to come down. I found my bedroom door “hanging out” in the living room, complete with all its retablos and wall collages. One oversight on my part. I later “saved” all of the art pieces just as they were ready to cut the bottom of the door off with them still intact. Not your usual Thursday Door, I’ll submit!

This group of efficient young men descended upon my house just as all of the tile layers were getting ready to go home and made short work of removing what doors hadn’t already been removed and cutting the bottoms off 13 doors to accommodate the higher porcelain tiles. And two of the doors were metal! Amazing.

No Nonsense: Thursday Doors, Nov 17, 2016

No Nonsense

Although its paint is in abatement,
and it makes no major statement—
though it has no style or clout,
it still lets you in and out.

Thursday Doors: Nov 10, 2016

This cheerful riot of color is my friend Candace’s house in Chapala.  Have you ever seen a more colorful door, or more colorful surroundings?

“Come on in the Front!”: Thursday Doors, Oct 13, 2016

img_4550-1

My friend Dianne Hicks Morrow would be the first to call her hundred year old farmhouse on Prince Edward Island a “crooked little house,” Trying to square it up by cropping proved to be impossible.  The floor in the kitchen slopes by inches from side to side and when I gave their grandson a top, it continually whirled in the same direction—down the floor in a straight line from the sink to the wall on the other side of the kitchen.

The front door pictured is, I think, an original. I didn’t do a very good job of  photographing it, but wanted to share it nonetheless.  She’s written a book about this house she and her husband Andrew love so much entitled, “Fixing Up the Farmhouse,” which is a most enjoyable read.  Almost as enjoyable as my week-long visit there in early September, 2016.

For the Thursday Doors Challenge.

Abe’s Grill: Thursday Doors

Abe’s Grill in Corinth, Mississippi has the most original door I’ve ever seen––and the most original menu.  I’ll publish more photos later, but for now, here’s the door. (It also recently received the distinction of serving the best hamburger in Mississippi.)
