Ummmmmm, I still use a clothes line. I used mine today to hang out
sheets and yes, I have a clothes pin bag, too. Clothes pins left on
the line get dirty and transfer that dirt to your freshly washed
items. But I usually stop using it sometime in November and start up
again in April.

I have a clothesline in my basement, for foul weather drying of items
that can't go in the clothes dryer, car drying towels, etc. Outdoor
drying doesn't work well where I live, too many birds and birds rather
perch on clotheslines than anywhere else.

A mobile home on top of a mountain, at the end of a gravel road, with
ferrets running around your trailer. Um, I'm at a loss to find a way

Filthy Jews don't wash their clothes. Most other Jews take their wash
down to the Asian laundry.

Where do folks who are too lazy to bother to capitalize hang their
wash?

White trash is a culture. Sure it's associated with the ''White
Race,'' just as ''ghetto'' is a culture associated with Blacks.
Neither term denigrates typical White or Black folks.

We use ours all the time. We rarely use the dryer. We tend to schedule
our laundry to make the most of good drying days. For some reason,
Tuesday tends to be laundry day, but this week if it likely to be
delayed until Saturday because it has been raining all week. What we
generally do is to put the laundry in the machine at night with a
delayed start. It is usually towels and other heavy items that take
longer to dry. First thing in the morning we take that load out and
hang it on the line and start another load. We can get at least two big
loads on the line. I have been known to hang a load on a rainy evening
if the forecast is for clear skies in the morning.


We use our line all year long. It just takes longer to dry.

I considered a clothesline here briefly. Certainly it would work well
here, but then I calculated the cost of running my dryer and found that
it cost me $0.30/load. It's certainly not worth my time to take clothes
out, hang them on a clothesline, and then collect them and bring them
back in when they're dry vs. just move them the 2' between the washer
and dryer to save $0.30. Dryer clothes also don't get bugs on them, bird
crap on them, or dust from nearby lawn mowing on them.

The HOA here would frown upon such a thing. No one wants to see laundry
flapping in the breeze. I haven't seen a clothes line since the 1970's and
hope not to see one any time soon.

Selfish bitch. "No one"? Since when do you get to speak for the
entire world?
If you don't want to see someone's clean clothing drying on a
clothesline, don't look.
Smoking in public is far more offensive than clean clothing hanging
outside to dry.

It's a free world and your sentiments go both ways. If you don't
agree with the HOA, don't buy a home there.

The state of Colorado (at least) prohibits HOA's from disallowing
clothelines. Hopefully other states will follow Denver's lead
and heep these carbon-criminal HOA's in check.

I have to disagree. I don't mind it at all. It's a lot better than
some other things you see in people's yards. Like tacky lawn ornaments.
Or some really ugly flowers. And other things I won't even mention.
I think it's kind of homey and gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. I expect
to see Opie or Beaver come around the corner of the house pulling a
red wagon. ;-)

Not to worry... I seriously doubt Jill is going to want to live in
either of your trailer trash parks/ghettos... especially not with
yoose shit stained bloomers what can sail the QE II flappin' in the
breeze. LOL-LOL

I have a lot less trouble with seeing laundry lines that a lot of other
things you see in some people's yards. Someone on a nearby street has an
RV and two large boats (on trailers), two of them on the driveway and
one on the street, switching them around occasionally. IMO, that is an
eyesore.

I have no idea who "cartgirl" is but I doubt she could afford a home in my
neighborhood. HOA or not, I don't want to see her boyfriends' (notice the
plural) tighty whities flapping in the breeze next door.

Pompous is another word for "someone who has some class". You want to see
cartgirl's boyfriends undies on the clothesline? Go right ahead. Enjoy
that trailer park view. I'd rather not. Asshole.

Not taking sides, but pompous is not "another word for 'someone who has some
class'".

You've now burst my bubble. For a moment there, I thought I had

too bad. i mean, who wouldn't want to live with you and your fun-loving
friends at HOA.

(let's see, you've been a home owner exactly how long now?)

No no no. Shirts are one of the best things to hang on the line. They
dry wrinkle free. The other thing I like dried on the line is towels.
They turn out nice an stiff so they scrape the water off your back.

Just as a datapoint, in most areas of California, you can leave
any vehicle in a developed parking area (driveway or garage)
on your property, sometimes with a required set-back from
the street, but you cannot just have vehicles parked in the middle
of your lawn. Many people have an RV pulled into their driveway
and there are few if any jurisdictions where they must be off-site.

Putting in a driveway requires zoning and permit adherence,
so you can't just up and pour a new driveway for your RV.

HOAs and covenant controlled communities might be restrictive, but those
are some of the things they restrict. They do go too far sometimes, but
you won't see any bright purple houses or VWs up on blocks on the front
lawns.

In other words, you don't know what HOA means.

YOU couldn't afford a home in "your" neighborhood. You inherited it.
You can't afford a decent car so STFU, bitch.

She inherited the house. She never could never afford to buy it.
