I wrote about our dryer several months ago. Despite what you may think it’s effective in mid-winter, stuff does dry well when there is sunshine and a breeze, both of which we had until a short time ago. All of this stuff Faye took off the line is hanging in front of the furnace to get the last bit of moisture (what little is left) out, and that little bit will put a bit of welcome humidity in the air.

Our Solar- and Wind-Powered Clothes Dryer

I was about to write that we do not have a dryer. Of course we do! It’s our clothes line. All of our laundry is hung out to dry. While it sometimes would be nice to run things through a dryer – to get dog hair off, or to get the last bit of moisture out of clothes, to name two examples – we do not need one, even in winter. Our clothes get dry, they take much less wear and tear, and of course our hydro bill is far smaller than it would be,
I’m glad we do not live in a community which forbids clothes lines. What an absurd notion that is!
