It's quite handy to be able to plop the basket of wet things down and stand in one spot to do all the hanging.<br /><br />At the house I'm moving to the clotheslines are all strung between trees from one end of the long property to the other. This would require a fat lot of walking up and down in a nearly wild part of the garden that I would prefer to get a bit more wild. I don't mind the walking at all, I love to hang out clothes but the lines are in the way of other ''people''s homes. There are bunnies and squirrels and several bird families there, and chipmunks under foot as well. I'd rather leave that bit of woodsiness to them and relocate the clotheslines closer to the human house one way or another. This might be the best solution.

In England most of us have what we call 'whirligig' clothes lines ~ I find these are not well known in America, so I'll put a link to show you what I mean. One of the great things about them is on a hot day you can lay a sheet over them to make a sunshade, and you can drape and peg towels on them to make a play house. They're a bit ugly, but when not in use you can fold them up and lift them out of the ground to lay aside for later use - the central pole sits in a buried socket.<br />http://www.wilko.com/content/ebiz/wilkinsonplus/invt/bh00002/bh00002_l.jpgPen Wilcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818227904371811230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-3744264550925266462015-08-18T01:21:52.339+01:002015-08-18T01:21:52.339+01:00Playing amongst the fresh scented hanging clothes....Playing amongst the fresh scented hanging clothes....one more reason to use the sun instead of a clothes dryer.Rapunzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18381797135241461102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-2444795681331769892015-08-17T10:14:25.205+01:002015-08-17T10:14:25.205+01:00:0) xx:0) xxPen Wilcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818227904371811230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-91902911178250885302015-08-17T09:24:32.300+01:002015-08-17T09:24:32.300+01:00Bless her heart <3Bless her heart <3<br />Elizabeth @ The Garden Windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00274788007550318693noreply@blogger.com
