Porch Doors

September 2, 2011, we entered the house.  We opened doorways and windows for the first time in almost 60 years.  Three days later, we boarded the doors and windows again.  This time for security reasons. 

As we have worked on the exterior, the windows and doors have remained barricaded.  Only opening the front door, perhaps a few windows, during work hours, then shut again.

Until now.

We have three new doors opening onto the porch.  Imagine.  Unlocking the deadbolt with an actual key, turning the knob, and opening the door.  Walking through.  So simple, so taken for granted, yet now, a grand achievement!  At some point, I will forget the pleasure of opening a door and walking through, but for now, I'm on cloud nine.
