I have a retractable clothesline to give away. I bought it from Gaiam and haven’t retracted it since I began using it last year, but it works and its very strong.
Does anyone want it? If more than one person shows interest, I’ll randomly pick someone by next Sunday, August 10th.

Why I would love a retractable clothesline. We have to stay at work overnight and when we work on weekends we are on 24 hours. We can do our laundry there but we can’t put up outdoor clotheslines so this would be helpful in our room.

I am interested! I would love to mount a retractable line indoors in my laundry area to line dry in cooler temps.
P.S. I read your posts about checking out California neighborhoods via the web. I recommend the Rockridge neighborhood in Oakland. Fake Plastic Fish lives there and has posted pictures here:

The bay area residents are certainly doing a good job of convincing me that the bay area ought to be my next home. If the stars align it just could very well be my next home.

We have so much here in Southern California (North Coast of San Diego) that is pure paradise. What we don’t have is our own supply of water or nearly enough progressive energy. Otherwise I would be begging you to come to my neck of the woods. The temperate climate is exceptional and besides the drought, the best I can imagine. I mean this from the standpoint of Peak Oil - at the coast there is not dire neat for A/C or much heat in the winter.
BTW, I almost asked for the retractable clothesline. I have one already, so I stopped myself - because of my pledge of “Enoughness”, but I just love it.

Am I allowed to enter and give the item to someone who could use it in their backyard? If so, please throw my name into the hat.

katecontinued: The water problem does bother me, since I do want to settle down at least for a few years and establish a community and become stable…so living in CA does worry me. But the benefits do outweigh the negativities…
SF: Yes, your name is now in the hat.

I feel like I should do more bragging about LA, but since I’m leaving I don’t have a real reason to make you move here!!
It is awesome though. And yeah, we have water issues, but on the OTHER hand, I never needed my heater OR air conditioner. So that’s a huge plus!
If LA isn’t sustainable for water issues, then I charge New England as being unsustainable for oil issues!! So there!!
(Personally I think both are actually sustainable.)

Yes now that you’re running away from L.A. its hard to convince me that its great.
The thing is every place looks good on paper, its only after one lives there and experiences it can one arrive at a conclusion on how wonderful that place is. Although I think its hard to beat the San Andreas fault line. Nothing like that around here.

Another thing…if you’re going to leave a comment for the clothesline, please say you want the clothesline.

Ooh! I’d love to be in the drawing! I’ve been wanting to put up a line and it’s one of those things I just never get around to.

Thanks. I’d love a shot at the clothesline. Mine is starting to leave little green fibers on all my clothes.
