WASH DAY OF LONG AGO!

       
       The other day someone posted a picture of a lady from ago hanging clothes out on a clothes line. This time of year, especially, we should all be thankful for our indoor washer and dryers. How convenient, time saving and staying in from the elements do these modern inventions provide.

      I am sure we can all visualize ourselves,  our mothers, or grandmothers out in the cold wiping  that outdoor clothes-line and  cleaning it with a damp rag before hanging the clothes out on a Monday morning or afternoon. It just was the way it was. And, if the weather conditions were too bad, there was always ropes to hang clothes to dry in the basement. But only outdoor drying could provide that marvelous SMELL!
