All rotten

We're home bound today. A handyman and his ex-wife (she works for him... so strange) are tearing apart my entry way to repair the dry rot. Originally we thought it was just a portion of the front door frame.... nah... it's the sub floor too. There is also rot in the original framing but we're not going to replace it. He is going to put wood hardener over that portion... I am not sure what the tally will be now.
The upside is this is our excuse to replace the nasty linoleum in our entry way. I am thinking about tile...
The handyman and his ex have left the house to go buy supplies to fix everything. I am now collecting flies in my house b/c we have no door. Check out the photos:



Look at all that rot in the bottom portion of the door - that is staying! The stuff he took out was far worse.
