fiddle patch

so we went out last night -
they have patched our front window and it looks FABULOUS!

we are very pleased.

nothing else to report,
as we are waiting on windows
so they can stucco,
and then they can paint,
and then drywall,
and then we move in!

so close.

In the meantime, take a look at some of the options we have been thinking of for our windows.

We want to put UV film on all the windows, and we think this guy can help us.
"Vista® window film is a high-performance line of window film products widely recommended by the design community. Their appearance and high level of optical clarity make them popular for use in residential and commercial buildings. Vista has the highest level of ultraviolet rejection (both UVA and UVB) available with 99.9%.. In addition, Vista cuts glare and reduces excessive heat gain. Professionally installed, Vista films come with a lifetime warranty for residential and a ten year warranty for commercial applications."
Apparently, it's virtually transparent, with not a lot of tint to it, so it should be nice.

We also want to do interior shades as well, since that evening sun can be a knife in the eye...

One of our neighbors found this place and we think it's got what we need. We don't want motorized, because really - we just don't need it. But the shades are professional quality, and if we get the white, will blend nicely with the walls when down.
