Time for the weekly Thursday Doors challenge with our host Dan Antion. For those who love entrances, exits and the buildings and art that surrounds them this is the spot for you. The wonderful contributions from everywhere will delight. Share your own link in the comments on Dan’s weekly Door’s page.
I was in Frederick Maryland on Tuesday this week and captured a few doors. I know I have shot in this town before, but it’s been a few years. My apologies if I’ve captured some previous ones again. If so, I hope, it’s a new angle at least.
Tuesday’s a lot of shops are closed but there are still a ton of them open.

Different but same.
I love art, just not on my body. Not that I have anything against it on someone else.
A touch of green.
Lights, camera, cut.
R&D – No parking on these steps. Fire hydrant.
With RFK as Secretary of Health and Human Services, I’m wondering if he will make this site his new office soon.

Great doors, Mike. I can only imagine the exhibits in that medical museum. The thought makes me shake a little. I was scrolling down, and I saw “Classic Electric” before the word “Tattoo” I thought it might be trains.

I believe our last train repair/sales store in Mt Airy closed about 2-3 years ago.
