Not only did I get a haircut today, but my windows are also getting a trim. Using some really nice pieces of pine board, Pete's merry band of carpenteering experts made good progress in the kitchen and bay area toward trimming around the windows. And the result is a darned fine imitation of the existing trim in the rest of the house, so kudos to their craftsmanship, for sure. Here are a couple of shots of those windows; all that's missing here is the top crown molding, which Pete will be tracking down over the next couple of days. We're also trying to get the right look for the stain that will eventually adorn these trim boards. Right now you see them in the buff.
When I went out tonight to take a shot or two more of the trim, the dusk-timed picture helped capture what's outside the eating nook/bay windows. Maybe I'm alone in thinking it's cool, but here 'tis nonetheless, for your own consideration:
It was another starkly beautiful day today, although still chilly. (Last night's official low was 15 F; tonight should be around 18 F.) The sun did much to melt Sunday night's snow and it was fun to see icicles growing from the front gutters of the house:
