My daughter works for the CIA. Corn Island Archeology, that is. On Monday, she took me on a tour of the headquarters.
The HQ is in the Conrad-Seaton House, built in the late 1700s or very early 1800s. It was also a pottery.
Inside, I found a plethora of doors.
Also, stuff:
I dig their humor. har har
One last picture, for railroad buffs and for proud mama me: Sara‘s name on a report on Railroads.
This has been part of Norm Frampton’s Thursday Doors link-up. Visit Norm’s blog, view his wonderful pictures, scroll down to the blue frog link, and click through to a wonderland of doors.
A WRITING PROMPT BASED ON MY POST: Write about someone digging something up. Or about a privy, which is where most of the stuff here came from.

I loved the door that was white and made of planks. I think all the doors in my house should look like that, but they don’t. Original fireplace is also fab. “Man washing dishes” though, I mean, I hardly ever see that! Truly a lil treasure, that place is. (And your bebe, too, course!)

November 2, 2017 at 8:04amI should have pointed out that the dishes he was washing were broken bits dug up out of a privy. So: manly. Yeah, my girl, my girl: She LITERALLY can fall into a privy and FIGURATIVELY come up smelling like roses, with treasures to catalog. For, you know, a given value of “treasures”.

On the browser front, today, Firefox is showing me black rectangles where your photos should be (Chrome to the rescue). I guess I need to view this in Chrome by default.

November 2, 2017 at 8:21amThat is so very weird! I use Firefox, and I’m seeing stuff fine. :/ THANK YOU for taking the trouble to try a different browser, and for taking the time to tell me about it.

November 2, 2017 at 12:07pmWhat a lovely white place to work and a man being domestic! Just as well for your daughter if it all came from a privy!
Marian Allen
November 2, 2017 at 2:24pmYeah, they all have to take their turn washing the privy findings. That day was his turn. lol

November 3, 2017 at 5:11pmI’ve always had a soft spot for skinny doors and the one in this post does not disappoint. Fun post except for someone’s parking job 🙂

November 3, 2017 at 5:35pmThe parking job? That would be me. LOL

November 4, 2017 at 1:04amYou got me hooked with the CIA reference and the picture of your parking space and it got better from there. Great post!

November 4, 2017 at 7:32amThanks! Your link shows me a 404 error message, or I’d return the visit. 🙁
Gordon
November 7, 2017 at 5:46pmThanks for letting me know about the 404 error. My computer has been weird lately so I just restored my op system but now have to restore all my apps and fix my overflowing storge space. Will check on WordPress later; probably an operator error in listing my WP address.
