When we moved to the country I heard how expensive the electricity was so one of my first goals was to use the least amount of energy possible. I started using a clothes line right away. I hung every load of wash and kept our electric bill about $40 a month. Fast forward a few years and add two more children and I have found a love of hanging laundry again.
I love that my oldest daughter will help me and share her dreams while hanging clothes. I love that my one year old is playing at my feet and "helping" get the clothes out of the basket. I love the smell of clothes that have been drying on the line.
I have found that drying clothes on the line for a family of seven requires that I do one load of laundry a day. It takes me about 10 minutes to hang one load of laundry. I love that it gives me a few moments to enjoy God's creation.
Hanging our laundry works for me! For more works for me ideas check out we are that family

I can't imagine $40 electric bill! But I love the idea of hanging laundry too! I wish I lived in the country again...
That is such a good idea...I am afraid of doing it with all of us having such bad allergies though.
I love hanging laundry, too. There is something peaceful about clothes on a line swaying in the breeze. I enjoyed your post :o)
Nice answer back in return of this matter with real arguments and explaining all about that.

Hello! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when viewing from my apple iphone. I'm trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to correct this issue.
If you have any recommendations, please share.
Thanks!
