Another day older and another day deeper into this porch project. Dad and I saw a door last week at a piddler mall that I thought I could use to replace the back door to our house. I'm going to need to put a cat door in there and I can't do that with the style of door that is there now.

I still wanted to have glass involved so a simple wooden door was out. I saw one with 15 panes, 3 across 5 high. I thought I could take out the middle pane on the bottom and that would be a perfect pathway for the little bastards.

Don't get too excited though, it was 32" wide and I need one 34.5" wide. OK, get excited now. I found one today at the used stuff store and it was actually already missing the pane of glass that I was going to have to remove! It's only 34" but I can easily fix that when I redo the hinges and locks.

Someday I'm going to sit out there and have a cold beer and go, shewwee.

Home Depot sells wood stretchers. Surprised you don't have one as handy as they are.

Triumvirate

Is that triumvirate of aliens the sneeze-instigating kind? Just might be judging from the dog video. That is a Bert-worthy sneeze attack.
 
And...let me add..Denver is the Rockies version of Washington DC. I hate that so many people from California have migrated to Colorado. I'm sure someone will pounce on that statement but I don't care. I've been to CO enough to see the change in Colorado from the Cali's. :angry::angry::angry:
I was first in Colorado in the late 1970s, and already people were lamenting the “Cali-Fornicating” of the Denver-Boulder area. And it’s seemed a little worse every time I’ve visited.
 
71.8°F with sunshine in the far east. It is going to be a good day, I declare such.

Going to be with the kids this Thursday-Saturday and then Austin comes by Sunday. If he brings his little grand daughter with him Sherry and I will steal her.

I am probably going to rent Bohemian Rhapsody again today. I like the ending. Then I will go to UTube and watch the real ending. It was incredible how true to the concert the movie was.
 
Hey D-League. Closing in on our nation's birthday, so naturally the nuts are out of the woodwork with the "America Sucks" stuff.

I'll leave my ranting for the politics thread if I decide it is worth it. But I do note that when a company like Nike lets someone like Colin Kaepernick force them to withdraw millions of dollars of product and destroy it because it has the Betsy Ross 13-stars flag that has been a symbol of patriotism since the first Fourth of July, we've officially entered the twilight zone.

Hope everyone has a great day. Happy Birthday to Mrs. Starchief. As for Nike, they should send Kaepernick, along with that nut job Ball, and let them start football and basketball leagues in Russia. Any company who would let a person like Kaepernick determine their marketing strategy, deserves what they get. That is why I don't buy anything from Nike.
 
Stunning Sawnee. I lived in Florida for a couple years in the late 1970s, early 1980s, first in Pompano Beach then in the Boca Raton area (off Glades Road if you have been down there.) In the end, it wasn't for me. I missed being able to drive up into the hills. But I do recall some scenes, especially down in the Keys, that were so beautiful it made your heart ache with all sorts of emotions.

He gives me a pain I can't locate.
