Participant[quote=jpinpb]If we are going to talk about NJ, my vote is Wildwood. I remember going there when I was a kid. Miles of clean sand. Haven’t been there in ages, so don’t know what it’s like now.
Don’t you have to pay to go on some of those beaches in NJ? I think you do.
Man, does that state gouge people. Property tax, toll roads and pay to go on the beach. And you have to endure harsh winters. That’s real love and devotion. I know people that will never leave it. Wrap your head around that one.[/quote]
You have to get “beach tags” on most of the Jersey beaches. But the wildwoods (North Wildwood, Wildwood, and Wildwood Crest) are all free. When we rented a condo in Stone Harbor one weekend, we were given the unit’s “tags” to take to the beach. They still groom the beach.
You have high prop. taxes, toll roads, and harsh winters… but hey, you don’t have to pump your own gas. LOL

Participant[quote=jeeman]Let’s see, it takes about 15 minutes per load to hang up and take down. At $1 savings/load, that’s $4/hour.
If it is purely just to save money, then consider that people at McDonalds make more than that.[/quote]
That’s why I sort my laundry so that all the undies/socks/small stuff is all together – and toss that load in the dryer.No way it takes 15 minutes to hang up sheets, or towels, or jeans, or t-shirts…

Participant[quote=jpinpb][quote=UCGal]I add a little vinegar as a rinse agent and the clothes aren’t as “crunchy” from drying on the line. [/quote]
What kind of vinegar? Just white or apple cider vinegar?[/quote]
white vinegar.
(I also use it, diluted, for cleaning countertops, bathrooms, etc… – it’s antibacterial, works as a germacide, etc… And CHEAP when bought in the big bottle at costco. )UCGal

The OP already stated to assume asbestos.UCGal
