Windows arrive!




The windows arrived a couple weeks ago. Thirty-three of them. Our Yakima house has eleven. Yikes.
Well, we wanted lots of natural light...as much as we could get into a two-story house without having a glass ceiling. (We DO have two functional skylights! They are there under the pretense of providing much-needed ventilation for this very tightly built home...but I'm delighted with the idea of being able to look up and see stars at night!!)

We chose Milgard windows. Clad in dark green fiberglass on the outside, and wood on the inside.

Good thing we were there when the truck arrived. Those 33 windows were heavy, and Larry (the builder) has a very bad back. So Don got to help unload them.

Now, if I can just get him to wash them, too...
