Sometimes, a college student just needs a washer and dryer of their own!

I slipped my Haier Combo in late one night into the condo I was renting.  I got off work around 3AM, and a coworker and I hauled it upstairs. I had it hooked-up to the sink and it had built in retractable wheels so moving it around was a breeze. 

I just got tired of waiting for the person who's laundry had been in the washer for the last 3 hours to come claim them for the 3rd time this week.  Very inconsiderate and I wasn't about to empty their clothes out to use it.

I have to say, I thought the raising bed and hiding the laundry pair under it was way kewl, until I saw the secret washing armoire. Gobsmacked!

There was no laundramat in the tiny town of Springfeild,S.Dak where I attended college.Closest one would have been in Yankton, S.Dak-about 20Miles away.

Our school had it's own laundry that was included in your room and board. The problem is they starched everything including your underwear! No starch was not an option. But at least it all came back starched and folded.

Yup, we had NO ELECTRICAL appliances allowed at all besides an alarm clock! I had to get a waiver for my electric typewriter. You could also get a waiver for an electric razor too.

Fortunately there was an acceptable coin op about 5 blocks off campus and about a mile from our dorm.

Oh, and yes no girls EVER were allowed beyond the formal "sitting room" in the lobby of the dorm.

A few years after I graduated the school started to relax all these rules. At the time I went there it was a dry county ruled by the local Baptists. Eventually the school realized that to remain competitive they had to change. I would have loved to been there when the local Baptist preacher announced to his congregation that the school actually now would have "co ed dorms!" Oh, lord have mercy!

A few years ago the county laws were changed and the county was no longer dry! The school student center actually serves beer now! I think a lot of the dyed in the wool Baptists that were so influential in that town must have died off.

I can only wish

I'd gone away to school and had an experience of a laundromat full of hot bodied college girls and commercial laundry machines. I would still be recovering now at age 34 LOL I would have loved to show the girls how to get out of their clothes and wash them correctly. ROFLMAO
