A nice surprise

[offcntr]

We don't actually use our front door, much. The screen door likes to jam, and, for Denise, the three steps down to ground level are a challenge, between her knees and the lack of a railing to hang on to. The studio door is a little further, through the kitchen and down a hall, but I've built a ramp there, for rolling in hand trucks full of clay. Besides which, it's closer to the driveway, car, van, pottery shed. I think the only reason I've opened the front door in the last few weeks was to accept packages, or to leave bags of pottery for contact-free pick-ups.

So it was a bit of a surprise, opening the door yesterday afternoon, to find this on the floor of the front porch.

It's a thank-you note from the woman with the broken cardinal mug.

I wonder how long it's been there?
