Recorded before Donna headed off on her latest European Romp, the hosts sat down to talk about doors. Some funny moments from technical issues, to host departures during recording, some true belly laughs and amongst all the chaos, we talked doors. From operations, to components, colors and screens. We present and Open & Shut conversation about one the main features of a house which we all so easily overlook (unless its painted for Curb Appeal). FYI: The Prenteders recorded My City Was Gone (Back to Ohio) in 1982 while Tim Lowe recorded The Green Door all the way back in 1956 (neither host was born yet).

We can't beleive it is already time to be thinking Back to School, criminently it's only JULY. But supply drives are on, team practices will begin soon, and heck in AZ some schools are already back in session.

Things have changed a lot since our back to school days. Dress up, first day photos, walking and bussing. So much has changed and so much to discuss.

For 18 episodes we have introduced you to the two houses we both called home and the two additional houses, Donna raised her family in. In this episode, we figured it was time to introduce you to all four, as up till now we have focused on the 1868 Brick House, and casually mentioned the house on South Main. Stats from the Sandusky County Auditors office along with our memories (maybe we are making some of this up or least misremembering). We also intentionally focus on how small, our town was as all four houses were within walking a circular route and you would still need to add some distance to get in that mile.
