Day 13 The crooked door and Master carpenter.

The roofer was there today clearing some last minute things up. I went to check out doorknobs since I didn't get that done yesterday. On a whim, I made a phone call to uncle Benny's and he gave me the name of a local master carpenter to fix the pantry door. Someone had put cardboard into one of the panels and painted it. Only In a small town can you find a retired master carpenter working out of his garage on a Saturday, willing to repair a hundred year old door. And for $45 bucks. I know a new door is cheap but this old door is so crooked that just the labor to try and fit a new door would cost more. And besides its more fun finding a gem like Dean than the trouble and cursing to fit an old crooked door.
