Boy does this bring back memories....

The clothesline....a dead give away. Do the kids today even know what a clothesline is? I am sure a lot of you are too young to remember the clothesline, but for all of us who are older, this will bring back the memories. . . ..


THE BASIC RULES


1. You had to wash the clothesline before hanging any clothes. Walk the length of each line with a damp cloth around the line.

2. You had to hang the clothes in a certain order and always hang whites with whites and hang them first.

3. You never hung a shirt by the shoulders, always by the tail. What would the neighbors think?


4. Wash day on a Monday...........never hang clothes on the weekend or Sunday for heaven's sake!


5. Hang the sheets and towels on the outside lines so you could hide your 'unmentionables' in the middle.


6. It didn't matter if it was sub zero weather.....clothes would 'freeze dry.'


7. Always gather the clothes pins when taking down dry clothes. Pins left on the line were 'tacky'.

8. If you were efficient, you would line the clothes up so that each item did not need two clothespins, but shared one of the clothespins with the next washed item.

9. Clothes off of the line before dinner time, neatly folded in the clothes basket and ready to be ironed.


10. IRONED?????????? Well, that's a whole other subject.
