Doors, doors, and more doors

June 4, 2024 By Tamera Alexander

When you travel, do you have a specific item you take pictures of? For me? It's doors. I love doors. Especially doors in Europe. They seem to have so much more character that the "routine" American entry way. Here are some pictures from a recent trip Joe and I took.

Glimpses from recent life

April 16, 2024 By Tamera Alexander

Recommendations make a difference

April 2, 2024 By Tamera Alexander

When considering a purchase, I seek advice from others. Maybe they've traveled that particular road before and will have a suggestion or recommendation. Like two weeks ago when I asked for recommendations for toddler locks on doors and drawers. Thank you again, Susan Sines, for recommending the magnetic locks. I ordered the ones you mentioned, installed them with ease, and love the fact that … [Read more...]
