#ThursdayDoors #StorybookStyle #writingprompt
So I went to a sister-in-law’s house for a brothers-and-sisters lunch. Charlie’s siblings get together every month or so, with their spouses, if any, for a lunch without the younger generations. It restoreth my soul that they still include me after Charlie’s passing.
ANYWAY, this brother of Charlie’s and his precious wife live on a street stuffed with Storybook Style houses. I snapped a non-Storybook on the way. It is, I think, a very handsome house, with a grand door and a garage door peeking over the bushes.

I was charmed by this side door framed by a vaguely catslide roof.

And then there was this beauty!
