Fix-Up

An older house comes with lots of needs.  And our sweet, old house has needed lots of help for quite some time.

It doesn't look too bad from the front.

But once you get up close and personal, you see the needs.  Our poor windows...

We'd hoped to replace our windows this summer and called our favorite window man.  But it just wasn't meant to be.

So we called a great handyman.  Dave Potter has been repairing, priming and painting around here.

It's been pretty time consuming for him.

But things are starting to look up!

Our thirsty windows are happier.

And I'm pretty excited about this new color.  And now our favorite window company (Woody's) is replacing some glass on our storm windows.  I'm sure our neighbors are breathing a sigh of relief!!
