I dunno, 2J. I'm kind of used to the warm, fluffy clothing out of the dryer. Everytime I've ever hung clothes out to dry in the sun, they've been hard and stiff.

Maybe I should have used more fabric softener in the wash?

I line dried clothes in college for about a week, thinkin' I could save on quarters for the machine.... they were hard and stiff no matter how much softener I used... some things, like button-up cotton shirts and jeans, are fine that way, but towels.... nope... I can't stand a towel that stands up by itself...

I don't use softener...they are a bit stiffer than out of the dryer, but I don't mind it.

The dryer doesn't tear holes in our towels, for some reason...I dry all our towels, washclothes and dishclothes in the dryer. The rest either go on the line or get hauled down to the laundromat. We took 3 loads last night and took about 30 minutes to dry them all...We were home 45 minutes after we left!

The attendant complimented my boy's behavior...they got brownie points because of it.

I'm gonna soak my feet while I freep and enjoy a cup of chai.
