Laundry, really? I guess it has to be done. If I was a bit wealthier I would burn my dirty clothes and buy new ones. 2 weeks seems like an appropriate time to wear 2 pieces of clothing; shorts/pants and a T-shirt. Living in the woods has its advantages. Of course, with all the clothes I've accumulated over my 30 years of teaching, I wouldn't have to buy new ones for years. That's my free roadside washer above. A bit of tinkering and I can do 3 Tee's and a pair of pants or shorts. Throw them on the line and let them enjoy the sun and breeze.
Working on a fold out deck, so I can evade extra taxes on the cabin. Every little improvement seems to add to the pockets of the town. I build a platform for the front door each summer by storing the pieces and the frame under the cabin. The deck will fold down and become like a door to the space beneath the cabin where the boats are kept. Then, I should be able to realign the supporting posts, slide a peg through post and deck frame and voila! Ready to relax again. Stella likes the height and lays on the deck surveying her extensive lands for marauding chipmunks. The ramp is for her mostly, but any coordinated person can use it. Nice to have the swimming option after a hard days fun.
