Last year I just taped a hinge at the top. Not happy with that scheme (seems
kind of fragile), this year I'm going to glue a strip of flashing to both yurt
and door, inside and out, and reinforce it with bolts and wide washers (removed
for transport). We'll see how it works.
Extra points for figuring out how to hold the door up during entrance and exit.
Kind of a pain getting bumped in the butt all the time.
Cheers,
Steve

Hollywood Diet Secrets Fall Into Non-Celebrity Hands
HOLLYWOOD-- In a major Hollywood security leak, an Encino, CA, company has made
"Weight-Loss Secrets Of The Stars" available to the non-famous. Direct Sales
International made the offer through ads last week in The National Enquirer and
Weekly World News. "Learn how the rich and famous take unwanted pounds off
FAST--and KEEP them off!" the ad read. "I am horrified by the implications of
this," Julia Roberts said. "The institution of celebrityhood could crumble,
with our thigh-trimming and belly-banishing secrets now public. The global
balance of beauty has tipped forever. God help us all."
