It’s time to move from clothes dryer to clothes line. I had a load on the line yesterday and I ended up adding an extra pin to each shirt. I was afraid they would end up in the Johnsons’ yard with that wind. They must have dried in record time.

And then the power went off. First it sounded like firecrackers going off out in front. I ran to the window and saw wires blowing up and down and making contact every so often.
