Front door prep

For our front door we are recycling an old wood door we found downtown. The paint has been stripped and we are now removing the existing (single pane) glass pieces. These will be replaced with insulated glazing units similar to what you would find in a typical residential window. Tomorrow we are meeting with a door manufacturer to see if we can have the 2 panels at the bottom replaced with insulated panels.

December - our neighbors (father and son) are brick masons and are in the middle of working on our front porch and skirt. It is exciting to see final materials starting to go on. Rain poured down on us once again this week making it hard to get to the back door - yuck! We met with a landscaper today to get pricing for new topsoil and grading.
