Extremely Cool and Green Clotheslines
ByI never thought that I could ever be totally in love with clotheslinesline but it has happened. I was looking on the internet for an efficient clothes drying system. We have an industrial gas clothes dryer but during the dry season want to use our main source of energy, the sun, to dry our clothes. We have so many kids that just getting all the clothes washed, by hand, is tough but then hanging them to dry is even more back breaking. I found Cord-O- Clip on the internet, they even have a video of how it works. I thought this is just too good to be true. So I called the folks at the Clothesline Shop and they promised me the lines work really well. I ordered two 75 foot lines (we actually need about 5 in total) and in a couple of weeks (spending time in Guatemalan customs) we had our clothes lines.
We were lucky to have Greg from ProjectSomos install the clothes lines. Greg’s wife, Heather and I put on the clips and, of course, gave advice. I have to say this is such a cool product. It takes a little time to get accustomed to the process of hanging and taking off clothes but it is amazing. As soon as we had the lines up and the clips on the nannies were behind us with baskets of wet clothes. Greg gave an “in-service” on using our new system and within minutes the clothes were up and drying. This should be a great time saver for our nannies and so much more cost effective and kind to the planet than using a clothes dryer when we have so much sun.
