ha! my mother used one of those up until a few years ago when she left the farm and moved to town. it wasn't as old as this one, but it wasn't an automatic! she really liked using the wringer washers. I was always afraid of getting my fingers caught between the rollers. it was quite the process - washing clothes with one of these. great quote too! have a fantastic week Genie!
Great photo. That was a terrific labor saving device in it's day too.
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, a real old one. I am glad we are living now to do our washes.
ReplyDeleteLove the quote and the photo, Genie!

Great one Genie! Days of old indeed. Her days of service were well deserved.
