Pssstt. . . Wanna See A Front Door? With Pictures!!!

It is Wednesday June 22nd.
On June 25th our daughter Alida gets married, and we'll
have guests here at That Old House after the reception.

And the house painters are still here.


But now I have pictures!
Connie at Hartwood Roses tipped me that when my normal editing procedure for posting
pics didn't work this morning, that doing it in HTML mode would.  And it did!
Thank you, Connie, a fellow M.O.B. this month.
(Who has a wedding HAT post today -- very cute!)

Painter Spoor on the Porch

So what color did we paint the front door?

Take a look!

If you guessed Yellow, you were right!

So what are you waiting for?

Open the door, and come on in.

There's a small greeter -- who saw you come up the porch and is making sure you are safe.

Now isn't that a welcoming door?

It makes me smile.

It's Benjamin Moore Imperial Yellow, and it packs a punch, but it's not as bright as some I considered.
This one is more of a summer squash yellow.

Computer colors aren't true to life.  You may actually have to come and see for yourself!

Meanwhile, in the Parlor just inside the front door, have we caught our ghosts on camera?

No, thank goodness!

It's Alida's wedding gown, hung from the breakfront, covered with sheets,

and spread out so the long train doesn't get all crinkly.

Meanwhile, the bride, her sister, and half the rest of the wedding party are still asleep up these stairs:

Ssshhhh. . . let's slip back out on the porch and take another look at that yellow door, shall we?

Someone's keeping an eye on us.

And I am going back to my wedding reception seating chart, and listening to the RAIN

on the roof . . . and watching a frustrated painting crew realize they may not be able to paint the porch deck today.

Time for another cup of coffee to calm my nerves,

and a Yellow Door to make me smile!

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday . . . and then someone's becoming a Mother-In-Law! -- Cass
