Let's see your line-drying photos!

Here's mine

Prefolds, with microfleece liners on top of them to save space. Under the shade of the tree are the FB's, to save them from direct AZ sun which, believe it or not, fades them even when hung inside out. These dry within an hour on the hottest days. Faster than my dryer.

I need to figure out how to rig up a closeline that our HOA won't object to.....Thanks for adding something to my to-do list Darshani!

Nice bunch o' dipes Amma! I have a permanent structure. It was the first thing I painted when we moved in I have always had a line, even in apartments. Love those crunchy jeans :LOL

Here's what's on the line today... it's cotton day, so cotton pockets, fitteds, various inserts and one lone HH that snuck in with the others via the poop pail

Oh oh oh I have clothesline envy! It's so GREEN where you live!!! How beautiful!! Ah, what I would do for some green grass . . . more than two weeks a year.

Ladies Must give my dh credit here as he built our deck, play box, garden arch and my clothes line for me plus he does most of the gardening, growing the trees from cuttings or seeds! Now he is building a play set for ds too. Yes, I think I will keep him

I actually love AZ (in Ontario now) as my parents live there. We were there this past winter too and we loved it!

I DO love the mid west for the glorious springs and summers but I sure wish I had that southwest warmth in February.

I love the picture with the DC in it... sighhhhh beauty

I'd get one for you - but my line broke the other day - it's one of those square ones that fold down like an umbrella - one "arm" bent and broke. Guess we had too much on there. Dh just put up a new one for me tonight though so maybe I can use it tomorrow when I wash dipes I LOVE line drying!!

Wow, my dreams are simple . To have a clothes line in my own backyard! I'm in an apartment and have no where to put one.

One day...

I remember in India, where there were no dryers. There were about 3 days of heavy rain and during that time clotheslines appeared strung across the livingroom and kitchen. The clothes had to hang for a good 24 hours to get even close to dry, then they were ironed to remove any remaining moisture. Since it took so long for the clothes to dry, they were hanging constantly for all three days and we were ducking our heads to get under them, and having convesations across bras and undies. :LOL

I was SO glad I brought flats to India. I am not a fan of flat diapers but I can't imagine how long prefolds would take to dry in that weather, much less hemp. Maybe that's one reason that most of the labor class/rural people didn't use diapers on their babies except for traveling on a train or bus. They were allowed to run around naked and if they pooped or peed on the floor it was wiped up and no one really batted an eye. When Abi pooped on the floor there a couple of times people chuckled about how healthy she was.

I have tile flooring but I just can't see that happening in my house. Maybe next summer when she's 2.5, if she's interested in potty learning.
