Clothesline Zen

One of the best things we ever did was to put up a clothesline in our backyard.  I don't see many in our neighborhood and I can't understand why.  We bought ours from The Clothesline Shop and it has saved us thousands of dollars in utility bills since we rarely use our drier any more.

The clothesline actually has many other benefits.  I find it relaxing to hang the clothes, being in the fresh air, looking at the trees, the garden, watching birds and the sky at the same time.  It keeps me in touch with nature on a daily basis. It is ironic and odd that many of the older, analog devices and technologies many of us have abandoned, are actually more relaxing and physically beneficial than our new, advanced, digital competitors.
