#9 Open Windows

A lot of Hawaii homes have these type windows called jalousie windows. They are built for places like Hawaii where the climate is mild and there is no need to insulate a home. Our windows pretty much stay open all day every day and we have a constant breeze flowing through the house. I love the fresh air that is constantly blowing in. The draw back to always having windows open is that whatever noise is outside, you hear it perfectly on the inside. And all that breeze blowing around brings in dust from the outside. Once you dust your house you have about half a day before everything has a nice layer of dust on it again. But this count down is supposed to talk about what I will miss about Hawaii, not about what I won't miss. :o)
