Cleaning Windows

Sunday was a warm, quiet day here in Jackson Center, Ohio,  so decided it was a good time to clean windows. Rather than just simply spray and wipe we decided to remove the windows so a thorough cleaning job could be done.

Taking the windows completely off turned out to be very easy; just remove two screws and lift the window off its hinge at the top.

The window frame was rubbed down with steel wool, wet cloth and window cleaner.

Here I am supporting the frame with my head while removing the screws that hold the window in its track. It really was much easier than it looks.

Before replacing the window, Mary rubbed the gasket with coconut oil; you could also use silicone spray. This will help to preserve the rubber and keep it supple.

I caught this picture of a trailer leaving for home yesterday. He was driving back to Burlington, Ontario, with one wheel missing. Apparently his axle was cracked and the factory couldn't get one for 3 weeks. Hope he got home safely.

Can you see the missing wheel?

Today we are back in Canada and  looking forward to seeing family and friends.  It may be a few days before we next report. I need to renew by "Bell" contract so we can get internet service while in Bancroft.

Safe travels and we hope to be back writing soon.
