ON THE BACK BURNER

I think that I have everything that I need for my trip to Estes Park, Colorado. I am only taking a backpack, so I am now down to bare necessities. Every place that I will be has laundry facilities, so if I need to, I can take the time to do laundry. I do remember one laundry experience at the YMCA of the Rockies, where we always stayed  and where we will be this time, too. They have a laundry with many washers and driers for the staff and guest to use. One day as I was doing the family laundry, a young counsellor was folding his clothes and talking to a friend. I overheard him tell how his mother taught him how to fold clothes. "You shake everything 3 times, then you fold."I often think of this when  I fold clothes. She was right. If I shake The garment 3 times, it usually falls into a smoother folding pattern. I never taught my kids anything that practical.
