Sheets & clothes & linens on a clothesline are kind of nostalgic to me, &
not an eyesoar. In this day & age everyone has a dryer; it's been a long
time since I've seen clothes out on a line.


Hanging out laundry is a Good Thing in every way. It's ecologically
sound, taking nothing more than solar energy to accomplish its
purpose. It's thrifty. It's better for most fabrics. And laundry
smells good and fresh with no additives. And yes, many people continue
to use clotheslines if at all possible.


It's also an opportunity for unique play experiences. We used to hang towels
outside in the winter. Of course, they'd be stiff as cardboard in a matter
of minutes, and the kids thought that was the most amazing thing in the
world.
