First time in over five years. I didn't want to go but I did it anyway. I left the RV at about 6:30 AM on Sunday and drove all the way past little rows of RV's to the campground laundromat. Dark. Foggy. Quiet. No one out but me.
This little laundromat has only 4 washers (much smaller than the ones I had last week at my home) and 2 big dryers. It was pretty clean and there were lots and lots of magazines with stories and pictures of movie stars I have never heard of and don't care if I ever hear of.
I only had 3 loads to do - $1.50 each wash. Not bad. I got the machines filling with water and stared out at the dark surroundings. It was still foggy and quiet so I picked up my Kindle and went back to my story. There must be good water pressure because they filled fast and were done before I knew it.
Now, how to get the wet clothes from the washer all the way over to the dryer without dropping some and getting them dirty again! I managed. It is the small successes in life that make for a good day!
The dryers were 25 cents for 6 minutes. Six minutes is not much time! I just kept feeding in my quarters. I also found out that some of our quarters don't weigh enough to trigger the machines. They are not recognized and get shot right back out. Cheap money!
Today was a first of many more laundromat visits and hopefully in many new places. It really didn't hurt at all and was all done in not too much time.
Have a good week!
Oh the perils of the laundromats. we should write a book. Theres a good one here at Waterside and since Steve and I are the only ones present it's like my own only far away!
