Friend and award-winning fellow writer Joanna Foreman recently visited Florida and sent me this door picture.
Isn’t that delightful? I especially love the pineapples on the door mat. In case you didn’t know, pineapples have long been a symbol of hospitality. That’s why you sometimes see pineapples on the entrance gates to big old houses.
Thursday Doors is the brainchild of Norm Frampton, photographer extraordinaire. Visit his site, enjoy his photographs, follow his directions, and enter a world of doors.
A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Write about hospitality.
