RIP My Clothesline :(

Well, my clothesline has given up the ghost. 🙁 I don’t think it was meant to handle any serious amounts of laundry. Despite my staking it, holding it down with bricks, and always balancing the loads, it has had a tendency to fall over, always on the same side, and bend and twist. Today, it is irreparable. 🙁

I don’t want to install a permanent clothesline system in here until I get gravel. This is because Charles does my lawn with his riding tractor and the clearer the lawn, the quicker the job is for him. I’ve got it down to having to move just the clothesline (…) and the water hose, plus the truck the odd time I came in with a big load and decided to park right against the nose of the RV. If I set up a proper line with posts, it would be one more thing for him to go around.

So this is what I’m doing in the meantime:

Doesn’t hold much, but now that I’m on top of the laundry, it’ll do just fine. It’s just standard yellow rope tied to a fence pole at one end and my ladder at the other.
