Our new garage door
It's being installed this morning. I hope it doesn't disturb the mother duck on 9 eggs by the front door. The bottom panel of the door takes on water and then it starts to peel and look ugly. We've already replaced it once since moving here in 2002. So we're going for a new door--this one is metal, but will match the color of the building trim. We're also having a quieter opener/track installed, one that will have more than 10,000 open/closings, the life expectancy of the "average" opener. But because of the insulation in the door, other Americans get to help pay for our door with our tax deduction. Yes, our new brown garage door is "green." Actually, I'm more concerned about the gasoline powered vehicles that will be inside the garage, than I am an insulated door. Besides, who knows when whatever is in our insulation (roof and attic newly installed in 2001) and door, will be declared unsafe for .5% of the population and will need to be replaced? With Obama's new stop drilling rules and the regulations to come even though no one knows what caused the accident and the old regulations weren't being followed by either the government or BP, we just know gasoline is going to become very dear.
