Clotheslines

Greg.. you need to put those tensioners on the lines. I can't for the life of me think what they're called at the moment.. You splice the line attach it and then twist it to tighten the lines... get them at any hardward store..like you'd use on cables supporting an antenna etc.

I meant a turnbuckle on each line.

Yay!

I finally got myself a collapsable clothesline this year. It works great on the patio in a cast iron umbrella stand. I love hanging out linens especially....nothing is as good as slipping into clean bed linens that have been washed in a Unimatic and dried in the sun. I hung this load out this morning before I went to work and I'll take them down this afternoon -- I can almost smell them now!

Rich...

Beautiful backyard. Let's see more of it! (I'm a fellow Californian. In what part of California do you reside, if I may ask?) Using the umbrella stand to hold the collapsable clothesline is a great idea--truly inspired. Fred, are you taking notes?!

Thank you, Buffster. I live in Orange County. Maybe we should start a backyard photo thread.
