2nd grade wood still looks pretty darned good
Looks like you have a fair bit of "country" surrounding you too. I'm totally envious (except for the snakes) ... argh! (but happy for you) City life is sure ... well, I've been spoiled by country and small communities so I won't go there... at least not until I can "live" surrounded by nature again!) For now I must enjopy the positives of city life.
And Yes ... I DO know how Dutchmen/women are with their wood... they all wanna use it for making their wooden shoes

My mother does all of the stained glass that can be seen in the smaller panes below the big slab of glass. She did a splendid of migratory game bids for us ( well the loon is not really game - they tase like spotted owl, I think) a few years ago.

So you don't want me to come and throw rocks or frying pans at your windows???
Seriously though, the front and entrance looks great ... though I can't see details of the glass
It's a nice touch to have the stained glass actually done by family member. Very personal, and very nice!
