*I lifted the sash before Matt had actually stabilized the unit so gravity took hold at this point and it crashed onto our porch roof (because of course this happened with the one on the second floor).  Matt made a spectacular Indiana Jones type save and grabbed the cord that went flying by, then hauled it back into the house before it continued on into the ground. Hopefully it will still work next year…

**This has got to be some kind of record for our cats. I swear it’s like their way of marking their territory.
