So is it really true that are some municipalities in the US (and HOA’s) where you can’t hang your clothes out to dry the old-fashioned way on a clothesline?

‘Cause I haven’t owned a tumble dryer in 13 years, since I first moved here to Europe. I have an indoor drying rack for when the weather sucks, but on a day like today - 72 degrees with a light breeze - I just hang ‘em out on the balcony.

It’s also how I know it’s the weekend....everyone’s clothes are hanging out and drying on the balconies.

You can certainly buy a tumble dryer here, but most folks eschew them for line drying. The general notion being why pay for something when you can do it for free?

Until the government taxes you for the wind usage.
