My sister and I would run in and out around the sheets hanging on the line ... Got in trouble if you knocked the "clothes prop" down!

And use it whenever the weather allows, which in L.A. is pretty much always.

Back in the day (1950's) we lived on a small farm in PA when I was a kid and we had a clothes line in the backyard.
We moved to a small city in 1960 and my mom had a clothesline on the back porch.

She didn't use a clothes dryer until she and dad moved into a 'senior citizen high-rise' around 1975.

I am looking forward to when the weather is good for hanging clothes! I miss the stiff towels that seem so much more absorbent when they have dried on the line!
