When someone mentions cleaning up after a hurricane, one would normally think drying things out, picking up tree branches and chasing down lawn furniture that took flight. Cleaning windows does not spring to mind.
But boy, are hurricanes dirty - they pick up stuff, stir it all around and fling it everywhere - things like dust, dirt, leaf shreds, hapless bugs and more dust, which when soaked for awhile in the wet part of a hurricane, plaster all over everything, especially windows.
For some bizarre reason, it is up to the man of the house to clean this up (at least, so I am informed). So here it is, three weeks after a hurricane hit, and having hoped said dirt would sort of fall off the windows on its own, I am, instead, glumly washing them.
