Flashing windows - don't worry, I keep my clothes on.

It was almost a full year ago that I described the installation of some of our windows in an earlier blog post. Well, I guess it's about time I described how I set up the window openings and flashing in preparation for the windows. For those of you who may not know, proper flashing of the window openings is a key durability issue since, eventually, all windows leak. When your windows begin to leak, you want that water to be able to find its way back to the outside where it can drain away - and definitely not down into the wooden assemblies within the wall where it may cause mold and rot.

Hard to believe but this scene took place almost exactly a year ago already... I remember how relieved I was after we safely installed all the big pictures windows - what a load off.
