I haven't had a clothes line for years, but I do or I guess I should say I used to use the trampoline really often for<br />things that take a long time to dry. Pretty clever if you ask me! There's nothing quite like the smell of things dryed in the out doors!Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01424832015098950515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-41552245801326674922011-10-11T10:54:55.305-06:002011-10-11T10:54:55.305-06:00I'll be honest Jen- I have used a clothesline ...I'll be honest Jen- I have used a clothesline not by choice for the past 6 years and I HATE it! I think you are either a lover or a hater of clotheslines, my MIL loves to hang her clothes out, but I hated it from day one and still hate it. I love the idea, but I guess I am just lazy and want to be doing something else with my time. It also gets frusterating in the summer when it rains every day and I can't get out there fast enough to rescue the clothes, or in the srping when it is so windy and then the clothes get all dusty. Good for you though! You are a better woman than I!!!Cambriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03104089147171794617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-89471066822648760382011-10-11T10:40:55.008-06:002011-10-11T10:40:55.008-06:00Thanks for hosting!

And I don't hang things out when pollen is severe. I love the way the clothes smell when it's cold outside and a bit windy! Even the house smells fresh after you bring them in!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-40478050520290147112011-10-10T09:29:13.216-06:002011-10-10T09:29:13.216-06:00We don't have an outdoor clothesline,but we do...We don't have an outdoor clothesline,but we do have a drying rack that we use all the time.

And as far as towels, I usually put them in the dryer for 10 or 15 minutes and that keeps them from being too stiff (but I actually like them that way!) We went over a year without a dryer but finally bought one when all the kids and grandkids were going to be here during the summer. Ditto for a dishwasher, I actually prefer to handwash dishes.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06118408267260893676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-55490052443377801082011-10-10T09:04:51.805-06:002011-10-10T09:04:51.805-06:00I am a clothesline nut, and I think it started whe...I am a clothesline nut, and I think it started when I hung out the cloth diapers we used for all of out kids (thanks for reminding me, Pati!). There is something soothing and relaxing about hanging a load of laundry, and I love to fold each item as I take them off the line. Nothing smells better than climbing into bed when all the linens came off the line that day. Oh wait, babies smell better, and homemade bread is right up there.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06118408267260893676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-20408849400178815772011-10-10T09:02:41.685-06:002011-10-10T09:02:41.685-06:00Oh, Jen, I LOVE clothes (except towels) dried on c...Oh, Jen, I LOVE clothes (except towels) dried on clothes line. They smell wonderful and use no energy and somehow it's just satisfying to hang out one's clothes and bring them in when they are dry. This is the first house where I have not had a clothesline, and knowing how I was pining for one Bill ordered one and gave it to me for Christmas. It is based on the same design as John's, but not as sturdy. Unfortunately we never decided on a place for it where it would be close to the house, but wouldn't show from the street as I imagine our 42 page homeowner's covenant would frown on that. So, now, I'm not even sure where it is :( although it must be somewhere out in our garage storage. You've inspired me to look for it!

My cloth diapers looked brand new after 2 years of use and I think it was due to them never being in a dryer. I wish I could do that with clothes but it's against our homeowner's regulations :(Pati @ A Crafty Escapehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17176098739115609538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-43138481548167792332011-10-10T05:16:30.135-06:002011-10-10T05:16:30.135-06:00HI,
