Window trim and Crown moulding

This doesn't show a lot of detail, but it's there.  We were planning to have the trim for everything the same color as the walls, but after John put white primer on that one window, we decided he was right.  The contrast sets it off nicely.  So, these windows will have Cream in my Coffee instead of the Filoli Honey.
That is the crown moulding in the bottom of the photo.  They have one coat of paint.  He's using his sprayer outside to paint them, then bring them inside to dry.  There's only so much room in here, too.
This morning he's working on the window sills.  I asked him to make the one over the kitchen sink a little deeper.  He had it in place a few minutes ago.  I like it!  Enough room to set a small flower pot, or my Fiesta gravy boat in original yellow.  Or a bright red chili pepper, it's ceramic... a gift from a daughter-in-law... that's where I put my rings and watch when washing dishes.
Well, it's about time to head out to the office.  David said most of the road between here and town is clear...  A few icy patches where there's lots of trees along the roads.  School is closed again today.  I think we got about 1-1/2" to 2" snow yesterday.  It's 24 degrees now.  It might get up to 32 today.  Brrrrr!  But this is still better than it is in NW Arkansas...  They had 22" snow a couple of days ago!  For all us Southerners, that is unbelievable!!!  But for folks from Chicago, that's a piece of cake!  :-)  Take care... and drive carefully!
