Sun Dried Clothes

Anyone remember when clothesline were the norm.

Didn't need fabric softener

Clothes was soft and fresh smelling after sun drying, being whipped backwards and forwards in the wind. And almost wrinkle free.

It was the only kind I wore for the first 15 years of my life. Every house had a clothesline in the back yard. I remember my mom sometimes rushing to get the clothes inside as a thunderstorm approached. Then have to go hang them out again.

Not only that she handmade my shirts until about the 3rd grade. I'm sure I looked pretty goofy.

My mom always hung our clothes out. I miss that and I miss her.

We still do it. I have a clothes line and we hang all our cloths. The towels will suck water off you like crazy. Could almost dry off with a wash rag. And it cut our electric bill by. $70 per month.

I still do during summer months, as lmuch as possible.
Hmm, I always remember clothes line clothes being stiff at first, but they sure smelled nice.

I still do sheets and pillow cases that way. Nothing like the smell of a fresh bed.
