Someone is at My Door - Surprise

Song - I Hear You Knocking by Wynonna Judd






A decorative piece on a door in Provence
I love the patina of the various colors its been painted



 Our hotel door in Avignon including a letter slot and talking grill
Hotel Garlande





This ornate knocker was locate in St.-Cirq-Lapopie
which is a commune in the Lot district in Southern France.
It is a member of the Les Plus Beaux Villages de France association





My grandson Henry has learned to push open doors because
sometimes there is a surprise on the other side!

Knock Knock

Song - I Hear You Knockin' by Fats Domino







Come in.....


I have a love for windows and doors wondering what might be behind these portals.

And the hardware that goes with them is very interesting as well!

The hinge on the red door above is from the Cluny Museum in Paris and it looks like a dragon spewing out three fires....maybe.




And this pirate looking door knocker was found in Pisa, Italy.

I guess he got knocked one too many times and the owners nailed him shut!





 And the final knocker is a woman's hand on a dark green door in the 
Bouches-du-Rhône, Tarascon, France (home of the Tarasque monster)
