Finding the view…

Screen covered in mud. Hung ziplocks with dried bug carcasses hiding in the folds. Lovely.
Some plumbing work was done years ago and the wall panel was never replaced. But what a great place to store 20 boxes of Britta filters wrapped in grocery bags! Not.

Hard to tell in these pictures what a huge difference this meant to me. I found a way to take off the screen and scrubbed it with soap and sprayed it out with the hose. Then I used a hard brush to scrub all the flaking paint on the inside and around edges of the window, then made a paste of vinegar and baking soda for the hard water layers of grime on the outside window surfaces. Then…drum roll…I opened the windows so the breeze could come through. Yay!!
