House Project: Front Gate

Along with our small ranch we have a gate... yes a gate. It was the entrance to the Shawondasee mansion in 1904, which still exists, but now has a different driveway. I remember driving past our house several times when we were first looking at it, because the grande entrance seems like it should go with a different house. Either way, we love it and decided to brighten it up yesterday with some tedious scraping and a new coat of paint. Seven hours and a bottle of wine later it looks really pretty and we plan on closing it for our next party and making Palmer's cousin be our bouncer and work the gate for the evening... just because. Take a look at the transformation...
