    I have a Marvin window dealer in the family and even at dealer cost the price of windows can blow a budget pretty fast.

    My sentiments exactly LHN. I am starting to get concerned when I agree with you. LOL

    Don't fret it much Al. You're a fairly sharp cookie. You most likely won't agree with me too often.
    Every time I have strayed from the teachings of Skip Ellsworth it has cost me money.

    I love the mask mandate. I hardly ever have to bruh my teeth anymore.

    Caitlin --

    the 'R' value of windows is much less than logs and even "conventional" building.
    Every opening allows for the possiblity of increased heat loss.

    There is a 'safety' factor or security factor as well.
    YMMV and to each his own.
