And right! <br /><br />Karen, I've seen the plastic but didn't know the protocol of keeping your private things on the inner row - although it makes sense. Thanks for the info. <br /><br />Barbara the blue was luck!

There is an art to drying clothes in a midieval village. You can hang multiple rows, but you must have sturdy pins and a plastic sheet to protect your clothes from pigeons, rain and the dripping laundry from your upstairs neighbor. There is also a certain protocal where you try to keep private things on the inside rows and less private things for the world to see. Nonetheless, you can learn a lot about people looking at their washlines.Karen USAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38581932.post-44456703789549681932010-08-07T13:21:45.377+02:002010-08-07T13:21:45.377+02:00The laundry softens the lines of any landscape.

It humanizes the landscape, feminizes the landscape, welcomes us home, back to sweet, long childhood days even for those who never experienced such days in their life. Well, that's my theory, anyway.brattcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10382428477056833533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38581932.post-27401357638256904672010-08-07T12:54:30.890+02:002010-08-07T12:54:30.890+02:00This village is so beautiful and peaceful.
