Reds with green, reds with purples, reds with blues &#8212; it&#8217;s been a very red week!<\/p>\n<p>Like this one &#8211; clearly, it was red laundry load day for this family. (As one of my friends on Flickr pondered, &#8220;Wonder if they were all red going into the washing machine?&#8221;)  What is it about laundry lines? I love them, and this one in particular.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/postcardsfromthemothership\/6190199468\/\" title=\"277:365 Red laundry day by Dani_Girl, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6166\/6190199468_aae79db121.jpg\" class=\"frame aligncenter\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" alt=\"277:365 Red laundry day\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The reds are a little more muted in this one.

(I really had to resist the urge to straighten that lamp in photoshop.
