New windows

The next exciting day saw the installation of our new windows, replacing ugly aluminum ones. As much as possible we restored the original openings in the walls and copied the old, double-hung style.
In preparation for painting, Michael has power-washed the siding, which is why it looks so naked.

The tarps are because it was raining. in fact it rained all week. Oh joy!

Inside the downstairs bathroom you can see the dark grey plastic tiles, which will also have to go at some stage.
