Door Done!

Norma finally got her new front door! She ordered it about a month ago and after several delays at the Windsor Plywood shop and trouble coordinating an installer, everything came together yesterday.

The installer picked it up and was here by about ten, expressing surprise that I had not taken the old door out already. I could have done that but to be honest, I expected another delay and did not want a hole in the house while we waited. As it turned out, everything came together!

He did a good job dealing with the old house where a level surface or square corner are very hard to find. It took him about four hours and his cost, including taking the old door to the dump was $320.

    1. The deer will be able to see if there is anyone home before they pull up to the table! Actually, the deer have taken the hint with the new fence and gate and no longer make reservations at the flower buffet.

  4. The new door looks great and will let in a lot of light. Are you still planning a fall camping trip?

    1. It is looking like a "probably not". Maybe a couple of nights in a hotel on Long Beach (Tofino). It really is not worth hauling the motorhome over there with the mountains and expensive RV parks. We will see. We have been so busy lately we need some time to just relax.

      Are you guys still looking for houses on the Island?
