"Maybe you'd like
to wash clothes?"
Tora said
continuing
the home tour.
She led us down
the steep steps
into the cellar
and showed us
a brand new
washing machine
waiting to spin
its first load.

This morning
I rose early
to follow
her directions
for collectively
cleaning clothes.
Using the lower door,
I carried
the laundry basket
outside –

as
the
sun
rose
over
Bjørga –

to the
laundry
post
where I
hung up
our wear

for a
fragrant
Trøndelag
outdoor
freshness!
(How 'bout
our ladies'
photo humor
here?)
