Finally, I have some clotheslines pics to share. Our yard is reallly tiny. We live in a townhouse, so we are talking about a postage stamp.
My boyfriend has run clothes line under the top of the fence, so that when we hang, it is not visible from the street--unless you are LOOKING for it. We use a rack for overlow and to hide "unmentionables."

We live in a planned community with one overseeing agency and a homeowner's association for each neighborhood/complex. Mine is one of two neighborhoods in which hanging out is not allowed. All others are allowed to hang out during certain times of the day. Our neighbors have never said anything about our hanging out, and the HOA does not enforce it. I suspect that's because they realize it is a stupid rule to have, considering it is allowed in the rest of the community.
Naturally, after I took this photo, it clouded up, and I had to bring the clothes in. I'm glad I could share this, though.
Welcome, Clothes Peggers! If you know something about laundry, then this is the place to share it.
Project Laundry List is making air-drying and cold water washing laundry acceptable and desirable as a simple and effective way to save energy.

I agree, stupid rule. I'm thinking of just going for it in my neighborhood. Like you said, who is going to enforce it?
Thanks.
Monday, it DID rain on my laundry! I was not happy. LOL!

Sometimes I just leave up the laundry in the rain - and pray for clearing!!
I'm resigned to the fact that here in the damp Pacific Northwest you can't let a little rain spoil your laundry (or day) -haha!

Good for you, finding a way around the homeowner assn. It's finally raining again in Central Fl, so I have to get my laundry out and in early :-)Hang tough!
Marilyn, I would have, but we've had stretches of DAYS of rain here in the DC area, so I admitted defeat that time. :P
Thanks for the comments, folks. If you want to read in more detail about what we do on our tiny plot of land, you can see the post on my blog. :)
