Hot trunks

Today was a little bittersweet. The men came and removed our washer and dryer and replaced them with fancy new models. I loved our first ever washing machine and dryer which was a generous wedding gift from Scott's parents 13 year ago. I still remember the first load I did in them in our first condo in Holliday, UT. I was thrilled to not be visiting the laundromat again. I remember the big elephant trunk that was the heater exhaust pipe I would roll out the door to our outside laundry room. I remember how Kevin teased Scott with it. Then I remember packing the set with us from all over Utah and all our moves. They were are neat gift that I really had loved while they worked. The last few years the dryer has had one setting HOT and then it really made the outside hot not the clothes dry. It was a fire hazard that heat the whole house but didn't dry the clothes. My mom had her washer for over 25 years. They don't make them like they used to. My new one plays music- who would think of that? It is nice instead of buzzing to have music and the lights are super cool. It feel longer than 13 years ago I met my sweetheart. The first time I ever saw him- I will never forge the day, nor the first time I shook his hand, nor the first time he smiled at me. It was a run away romance that lead to 13 years with a great washer and dryer. SO here is to at least 13 more with the new LG model.
