I promised myself I wasn’t going to dig into the archive, so I went out and shot a few local doors. And I’m back on schedule for the Thursday Doors event after a few weeks’ hiatus. Hope this has been a good week for everyone.
As always, thanks to the creator of ThursdayDoors and please follow the link to Dan’s site No Facilities for far more talented posts.
I went to the down the road to a town called Granite. Just took a few shots but there is much more there.
The plaque to the left on this door above says “This Property has been placed on The National Register of Historic Places by the Department of the United States of the Interior. I couldn’t decide which shot I liked best.
Ah the good old Woodstock in. I parked there to walk some local trails and get a few nature shots.
This is the first home as you enter Granite from Woodstock.
I’ll have to start exploring this neighborhood more. Lots of beautiful homes.
The Granite Missionary Baptist Church above.
In the seasonal spirit.
The gate and steps have seen better days.
Now that’s a garage.

You snagged a great collection of doors and scenes, Mike. My favorites are the Woodstock Inn and the old gate.

Love the sunshine and great light in the photos Mike. There is a sense of laid back style to these homes and full of charm, I feel. I like the red doors and that last photo of a garage…superb! Thank you for sharing these great photos.
