Clotheslines

Clotheslines and clothespins seems to have gone the way of the dinasaur since the new clothes dryers came out. Our neighbor always hung out her clothes for as long as I can remember. But her washer and dryer got to the point where they needed replacing and they got very energy efficient new ones. Now she does not hang her clothes outside anymore. I quit doing that years ago because you always managed to bring in some bugs, wasps or something on the clothes and I didn't like that. Dryers make your towels so nice and soft. I know that fresh air smell on sheets can't be replaced but the work of hanging them up has gladly gone by the wayside.
