Our guests added to this week's load! |
It was nice having our own machines so that we could just throw a load in whenever it was convenient. Our Marina has a small laundry facility for those emergency loads. But we have found that all things considered... it's just easier for us to load it all up once a week and take it to the laundromat.
I know, I know... people our age should be past the laundromat phase. But you would be surprised how many other women my age and older I meet there who either live aboard boats or in RVs. Port A is that kind of town.
Anyway... we get the whole week's worth of laundry done in about two hours, spend about $15 per week and it's all done! We can go about our lives! With the cost savings of not driving to Corpus Christi and the 6-8 hours it would have taken us to do it at the townhouse just seem like a no-brainer. Plus, I'm still making my own laundry soap and fabric softener so that helps to defray the costs of using the laundromat too.
So, while I do miss the convenience of washing a load anytime in our own machines... I only miss them a little bit.
