Summary

It’s hard to imagine an old house without a screen door. And even though they may mostly be a thing of the past, they still hold a significant place in Brent’s memories. A listener’s experience is outlined through his knocking on doors asking for hunting permission. Then Brent shares some observations that detail how the thought of a screen door or even a similar sound of one closing can bring on a flood of memories.
