Door knob

The Captain put the finishing touches on our bedroom door handle at the cottage. Although the knob was in place (the door handle, not the husband) in recent hallway photos, the latching mechanism had not yet been installed.

It took him some short work with a 1" spade bit and a bit of chiselling. There was also considerable laughter at him when he walked out the very-breezy front door with a dustpan full of sawdust. (I still can't get all the wood pricklies out of the microsuede slipcovers. Even with the vacuum.). We're a supportive bunch. Really. If you can't laugh at your mistakes, we will.

After we suppressed our mirth and wiped away the tears, we could see that the door now latches closed. Huzzah!
