...drying clothes outside!!!
I got this new collapsable clothes drying rack for Christmas. In the dead of winter (even in this lame winter we had), it seemed like it would be forever before I could use it. Most of the time during the winter I hung my clothes up to dry in the basement, but it took forever for my clothes to dry and it just didn't have the same feel of hanging clothes up to dry outside. But now the weather is just great for drying clothes outside.
On Sunday my dad helped me install a pipe connected to our deck that the collapsable rack fits into. So I can fold up the rack and take it inside when I'm not using it so it doesn't get all dirty. And it works super! It is easy to set-up and it holds a LOT of clothes. I did a very large load of laundry and I could have easily fit at least one more very large load. The really cool thing about the design of this rack is that I can hang laundry on the inner part that I don't want the neighbors to see. Even though it got pretty windy today all my clothes stayed on the rack (I don't know if this can be attributed to the clothespins or the rack- either way I was pretty happy to come home and not have to collect my clothes from around the backyard).
