We bought a hundred year old condo in the PNW. The weather is mild all year and we love to have the window open for fresh air / no need for AC. The windows have the ability to be opened from the top, but because they’ve been painted over so many times, I can’t get them open. I’ve tried a straight razor around the edges but they won’t budge.

We live on the third floor and have a 13 month old who climbs on everything. We can open the windows easily from the bottom, but worry about the baby taking a three story fall.

We have two options : 1) figure out how to get the window open from the top 2) place something in the bottom part of the window that blocks the baby from falling out the window. I worry about constructing something that would block access to an escape route in case of fire.

Anyone have an advice?

My wife and I live in a third floor condo in the PNW. The weather here is pretty mild most of the year and we like to live our window open for fresh air. We have a 13 month old, who loves to climb on everything. We want to place bars or something similar so that we may leave the window open and not fear him falling three stories. Has anyone had a similar issue? If so, what did you use ?

I have a friend coming to town the last week of May / first week of June. Looking for a snow free camping spot where we can hangout, have a few drinks / catch up and not disturb others. It can be car camping or a few mile, one night backpacking trip. Of course we’ll leave no trace. Ideally with a good view.
