I can see the whole scenario without even closing my eyes. My dad rigged up a clothes line on a pully. Went from the end of the yard to the first big tree at the edge of the woods. Seemed like we had clothes hanging for a mile. Those clothes went out early in the morning, and came back late afternoon or evening. Mom also sprinkled the clothes, rolled them up and usually left them in the basket over night. Monday was wash day, Tuesday morn we started the ironing. We did have a wringer washer for several years, and being the clutz that I am, I got my hand caught in it. Still have the scar. I’m sure we hated it then, but such wonderful memories. I also remember the time the steam iron boiled over and burned my hand. How I long for those days in the country.

I got good at it and would iron about 15 or so shirts every week. It was a type of cotton that felt slightly rough; I can’t remember the name, (Kettlecloth?) but they ironed up nicely. I was proud of helping my brothers look sharp. I don’t remember ironing much for myself, but am sure I did. I jus trmemebred the heat and hte monotony.

I love to hang the clothes in an order, see clothes flap in the wind, fold when dry and the fresh smell of my bedsheets. I will always have a line in my backyard. Makes me very nostalgic as I grab pins from the vintage homemade bag from my husband’s grandma! Nice post this morning,
