This Door.

The day after Thanksgiving.

Construction contemplation.

This was the day before Thanksgiving.

Collins boys(including Clay) out cold in our hotel lobby in 

Grand Junction,

which has a very cute Main street with a great pizza place called Pablos.

I digress, back to this really important door!

We took off the front door and finally painted it.

It was more about getting the door ready for the winter than trying to make this house look less like a junk yard.

Anything helps!

With all the leaves gone,

 I feel like it looks crazy worse.

Making it all the more rewarding to finish.

Should I call a magazine for a feature?

I admit, this shot was a little late in the game.

So, here is a look at a 2nd coat!

3 coats are necessary for a front door.

Schlage hardware again.

 Paint color is Lakeside Cabin by Benjamin Moore. 

I thought about a red door(classic), a gold door(hipster), Clay votes for anything orange but the blue just kind of looks natural with the sky and surroundings.

Peeling back to show off the glass.

Imagine that raw wood trimmed in white.

And a new roof next spring.

And the frosty-ness removed from the windows. 

oh yeah, I still need to paint the interior of the door.

That could happen but the probability is very low at this point.

I know what you're thinking. I can't believe I just read a blog post about a front door.

Lame. 

I know!

I just re-read it.

So here is a jammie/hoodie/snowboot photo of Chester.

So much better now, right?

This is where all our stuff is.

It looks like we are storing a giant blueberry in there.

(We might be)

And newsflash! 

I have thickened my blood enough to take morning walks in 

24 degrees. My goal is to brave 10 degrees.

This was from the other day.

Pretty Colorado.
