I say, bring on the clothesline police! I've had a 'thing' for clotheslines since I was a kid and remember sitting in my mother's clothes basket watching her pin up from sheets to underwear on the backyard line. It's actually my very first memory. I once wanted to produce a 'coffee table book' of colorful clothes on lines around the country, something that's difficult to find nowadays.<br /><br />~~Doublesaj~~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-7215622571697512542010-03-29T17:20:03.211-07:002010-03-29T17:20:03.211-07:00Isn't it always good to try to power down?

We never watch TV, but use our computers an awful lot. We live a mile from work, so don't rack up commuter miles, but don't often bike or walk. Hmm...<br /><br />And we grow lots of our own vegetables, etc. but that hardly makes us sustainable.<br /><br />Thanks for the reminder!<br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06657232418012801175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-52995193092125091622010-03-27T12:34:07.264-07:002010-03-27T12:34:07.264-07:00Does it count if I promise to use almost no electr...Does it count if I promise to use almost no electricity or water all summer long during my PCT thru-hike? =)Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243706924573005381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-89282824973977486062010-03-27T10:35:10.742-07:002010-03-27T10:35:10.742-07:00Thank you for the reminder~ gailThank you for the reminder~ gailGailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-81432835671273473902010-03-27T10:29:07.998-07:002010-03-27T10:29:07.998-07:00Good girl!

Your not exactly my type to sit in the dark with, but that's ok.<br /><br />I was just reading that this summer you might get a real drought problem in your neck of the woods. I highly suggest getting some rain barrels, crude or not, however unsightly for your yard, even if just for one year. The first year you put plants in is an important one, and I wonder if you will loose a lot of your new plantings due to drought. Good thing your older plants have developed deeper roots over time.<br />I set up a art exhibit today for our local school district I grew up in- tomorrow is the big day and we have performances and art to exhibit, and auction off!
