Hi Don,

        This clothes washing technique was discovered and published by John Steinbeck  In "Travels With Charlie."  A great read in my opinion. I think he traveled around with his dog, charlie about 1965 in a pick up with a camper on the back.  Now if only he had waited until 1968 and taken a nice Bay window!

Is it Friday?
