Sounds good to me, but I just made that up. Now they make plastic ones that don’t last long at all. I use the dryer most of the time, but I have a five foot tall collapsable drying rack made of wood dowels. Easy to find here in Maine, not sure if they are available around the rest of the country.
As a kid, one of my neighborhood friends was riding his bike across the back yards just past dusk and got clotheslined, literally, right off his bike. He had a pretty big mark under his nose for several days.
One evening a long time ago, a lady left her clothes on the line, including her drawers. They were big, too. A friend and I lit a firecracker and threw it in one and it blew a large hole in it. I’ve always wondered what her reaction was.
While it leave them stiff, nothing smells better than clothes dried on a line (depending, of course, on where you are; paper mill or pig farm next door? Use the dryer……)
I live in Vancouver and use my clothesline all year if it isn’t raining. Many homes in Vancouver have a working clothesline, while a trip to Seattle reveals they are seldom seen. Clothing off the line has a great fresh scent and feel, and bed sheets are welcoming at the end of the day. Wringer washers outsold automatics in Canada until 1968, while in the USA that change took place in 1951.

I’ve never even heard the term clothes pegs before. We always used clothes pins.

Clothes pins have a spring…Clothes pegs don’t.

The washing machine must be out of order as well, if it’s so wet that it drips.

The only time when “going on line” meant actually having to go outside.
