Just wondering...

Deb and I spent yesterday morning on our (typically) twice-per-year task of washing down the outside of our house. Deb almost always couples this task with washing all of the windows, inside and out. The only really enjoyable aspect of this 4-hour job is that it is a good excuse for me to get out the power-washer, but other than that, it is a pretty lousy way to spend a Friday off from work.

Every time we do this, some variation of the same question comes to mind: why do we never see anyone else washing their house? I can't believe we're the only people who do, and although I've never walked right up to a statistically significant sampling of homes in our neighborhood to see how dirty they are, I have to believe other home-owners (aside from those "responsible" for the nearly-abandoned house just to the west of us) have some means of keeping their house clean.

Thoughts?
