Only when we have 2 or 3 days worth of rain will I resort to my dryer. To me, there is nothing better than line-dried sheets and towels...fresh, crisp, bright, and hey, they last twice as long because of it! :) Great Post!Sandra Lundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13956886130116021414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909051016007644645.post-67222308044579601132008-06-12T15:14:00.000-04:002008-06-12T15:14:00.000-04:00I'm planning to hang a line in the rafters over ou...I'm planning to hang a line in the rafters over our deck.

I think clotheslines should be a world wide requirement and dryers should be outlawed. Ok, that's impractical for some places, but there is no reason why people who have backyards can't use a clothesline for at least some of the year. Or even string up clothesline in the basement and have the clothes air dry.<BR/><BR/>Am I ranting?

But the sun is strong here and too much fading and sun damage results if I try to do much else on the line. Another thing I do is very seldom to I use my dishwasher except as a drying rack. I only use it when we have company and lots of dishes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909051016007644645.post-37013409853800523952008-06-06T22:28:00.000-04:002008-06-06T22:28:00.000-04:00Just look at those lovely vintage pillowcases!

I've never seen the woman, but there's always this long line of huge granny panties hanging there, flapping in the breeze. It's a high traffic corner. I'm afraid pride would prevent me from doing such. ;-ÞRennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03628198694622790891noreply@blogger.com
