I don't know exactly what it is but I LOVE hanging my laundry outside to dry. I love the fact that it takes less time in the sun and breeze then in my dryer. I love the natural bleaching the sun can do. I love that I'm saving energy and money. I love the look of all our stuff blowing in the breeze.
I'll never forget when I first started hanging our laundry on the new line Jayson put up for me and my neighbour rushed over to offer us her dryer (she thought our broke) :) Funniest look on her face when I told her that I wanted to do this and that our dryer was fine.
Sometimes it's just those real little things that can make me smile. I'm just waiting for my first experience with a bird though and I'm sure I won't be so smiley ;)
