An Olfactory Moment

Took the rugs to the laundromat this morning and instead of having to wait for them to dry, I brought them back to the Park and hung them on a neighbor's clothesline.

Have you ever had deja vu...of the nose? The scent of those clean rugs dried by the sun and soft breeze (and low humidity!) took me right back to the south valley of Albuquerque where I grew up. We had quite the clothesline in our backyard; a huge one, what with a family of six and no automatic dryer. Man! I'm gonna be sniffing those rugs all night!

Another sentimental journey...or maybe I should call it a "scentimental" journey. Ha!
