Red Mexican Door

A split red door with a maroon border that must open from the inside. New security lights have replaced older ones, and it is protected by Terracotta shingles. Simple and quaint.

  The bull will find that Matador and crash through that red door. The Matador will be yesterday’s news.

So I am trying to imagine the use of the splits in the door. The bottom to let pets in? A warming photo on this cold day.

  I don’t understand the splits either. Perhaps they just open the top and can sell items in that way?

  The door was split and after I took the picture I split too. Like a banana.

  Me thinks maybe too much red. I don’t like red doors, especially as a front door. They always feel a bit foreboding to me.

I spent a lot of time while in Mexico walking around taking photos of doors. This reminds me of that time in my life. 🙂
