The Times They Are a-Changin’

Washing machine

A couple of weeks ago, whilst in Albany WA, we visited one of the local museums and my 6 year old son, Davis, pointed to a laundry washboard, and asked me what it was. After my explanation of scrubbing clothes against it to get them clean, with a serious look on his face, he asked me ‘Yeah… but they had Dryers, right Dad?’.

I remembered this, earlier tonight when turning on our new fangled washing machine, and amusing myself with the 18+ wash programs, LCD screen and animated tips and trouble shooting screens.

    Ha, you know your getting old when washing machine LCDs are what you find amusing. Hey Miles.

    Hahaha, perhaps so. I’m just waiting for the day I can assign my laundry equipment IP addresses, so I can SSH to them.
