This morning I saw a friend had posted that she was no longer using a clothesline after finding a tick in the house and having discovered a bird relived itself on the last load of clean clothes drying on the line.
That got me thinking, I have grown up with my Mom and grandmothers drying laundry on the line. When I moved out I always did the same, or in the winter had jeans drying over a chair so they didn’t freeze solid. But is that the norm today? Are clotheslines as common as they once were? If you are planning to install a line for drying clothes, the law is on your side.
