Rain, Rain, Go Away ...

Perhaps I spoke to soon about my screen door project this week. Silly of me to think that the weather might cooperate!

The door has been delivered, and the hinges, knobs, and all are in place ... but until the rain subsides the door cannot be painted. I'm hoping that Mr. Weather man has it right for tomorrow, and I'll get it all up and painted, and beautiful - worthy of the blog!

With so many of you carrying memories of screen doors of your past, I hate to post an in-progress photo! So, (and yes - I feel like a broken record) stay tuned!

    Am eagerly looking forward to your front door -- the rain is falling on the prairie as well -- and I have a brick walk full of weeds that need to be attended to!

    Oh no, that darn rain! I want to see that door!!!
    It is rainy here today too. I'm not at all fond of rain, that is why I do not live in Seattle, it would drive me nuts.

    Drats, that darn rain has a way of squelching the best made plans. Oh well, it just keeps in in suspense, that's all. Happy May Day, Artie! ~ Robyn

    It's okay, take your time because as soon as you install it, you'll be yelling at us all to "stay in or stay out"......

    RAIN....think positive Artie. At least you don't have to shovel it. :)

    Looking forward to the pics perhaps tomorrow or Monday.

    Can't wait to see the door project. I want a wooden screen door for my back door that I can have an open section in the bottom/ center for my pets to access. I hated removing my full view storm door but I did not like the appearance of having it propped open to allow the dogs to utilize the pet door in the main door.
    I love the choice of music which calms me as I peruse your stories/pictures. Thanks!

    Are you going to take pictures of the process? I can't wait myself.
