Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
Last week, I shared eight doors from my walk to the Javits Center in New York City and from there to The Molly Wee Pub. I had almost 30 doors to choose from, because walking in New York is a series of: “Oooh that’s a nice door” – “That’s an interesting door” – “Oooh a... Continue Reading →
If you’ve come for the doors, you should know two things, 1) Norm is taking the day off, but 2) of course there will be doors. But first, I want to take a few moments to thank two special people in the universe that is WordPress – Norm Frampton, and Linda G. Hill. Norm, of... Continue Reading →
This is the final official Thursday Doors post of 2018, as Norm has decided to take next Thursday off. Norm suggested that we spend this final Thursday by revisiting our favorite doors from 2018.

Today is Thanksgiving here in the US, So I want to be brief and stay with the spirit of the day. The doors in the gallery were collected from the train while traveling to/from New York City. I’ve done my best to describe them in the captions. You know the drill, if you’re in between... Continue Reading →
Between our fiscal year-end (Nov 30) approaching at work, and Mother Nature pressuring me on my outdoor projects, there has been zero time to get out and snag pictures of doors. Fortunately, I took a gazillion pictures when we were in Pittsburgh, and I still have some special ones to share. Some of the pictures... Continue Reading →
A quick look at the forecast image below will tell most of my readers what I was planning for Wednesday and Thursday. That forecast has been the same since Monday, so I’ve been scrambling to catch up with reading blogs and getting posts ready for what I hope will be two days full of construction...
