Siena, Italy and Jockey Shorts

Here is one of my favorite pictures from our trip to Italy. This was taken inside the walled city of Sienna. I love the old building and the fact that someone hung their jockey shorts out the window on the clothes line. The fact that they are so artfully arrange with one pair of shorts on one end and the other pair on the other side to balance the arrangements is just priceless. When I was living in Indy, I took a folklore class and the discussion was the art of hanging laundry. The premise was that women are naturally artistic and find ways to express that art in everyday living. If the only way they can express the artist within themselves, is by hanging laudry, then they will do it! This to me is true art and I know that I have never looked at hanging laundry the same way. I hope you don't either! You would fully understand if you could see the number of pictures of hanging laundry I took in Italy, Turkey and Greece.
