While visiting sunny San Diego over the holidays, we visited Coronado for a quick walk on the dog beach area. Walking back to the car, I saw this amazing door!
They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep. Psalm 107:23-24
Here is a closer shot of the door showing the intricate wood work.
It’s not always that easy stalking people’s front doors with a camera. I sort of hid behind my car and zoomed in enough to read the quote above. It is a breath-taking door surrounded with beautiful stained glass, complete with a port-hole.
All within a stone’s throw of the beach!
Thursday Doors is a weekly feature on Norm 2.0’s blog.

With a door like that, the owners probably find their entrance way ‘stalked’ quite often. I LOVE Thursday Doors! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful door! I agree with Donna. I’m sure many people have “stalked” this door. LOL!

What a great find, Terri!!
It is funny taking photos of other’s property—I would hope they think it’s a compliment??

What an interesting door! Like others have said, I imagine that the homeowners are used to people taking pictures of their door… but I can understand that you felt a bit awkward. But, I’m glad you went ahead and did it anyway so you could share it with us!

I’m almost surprised you haven’t seen it. Across from the park heading toward the dog beach.

I don’t even know where the dog beach is (maybe because I don’t have a dog). Perhaps I need to get over to Coronado again soon to check things out!

That occurred to me after I sent it 🙂 I didn’t know until my brother took me over there with his dog.

Haha, you have great stalking abilities! Am mostly not this lucky. And Sacramento – I thought there would be plenty of unusual doors, but up till now I”ve had more success in the suburbs.
By the way, thank you for visiting my blog this week!

Whoever built that door is truly a craftsman. I love the sentiment!

What workmanship. I think any householder with a front door like that one, are probably used to the cameras, Terri. I have been known to hid behind a tree when taking photos of doors, though.
