Old Timey Elevator





As mentioned in a previous post, our building has what I like to call an "old timey" elevator which provided somewhat of a challenge in the moving process. I took some pictures so that you could get a better idea of what it is like:


Here is Jeremy holding open the first door, revealing the black gate



Now Jeremy is attempting to open the black gate while holding the white door open with his foot:





Here is a shot from inside the elevator and the "old timey" buttons:

It looks like another component of "old timey" is that the door opening is narrow?

love ya,

yes its very narrow, even when fully opened, although opening it fully can sometimes be a chore, so we slide in sideways occasionally!
