The spring in the woods near Graymont is an ideal place to wash clothes. The stream flows under the ruins of an old folly, and runs off over a bank on the far side. Mrs. Gudenov and her daughter are preparing to do the week's wash, and Billy will help them.
He's filling the tubs and the boiling pot from the spring.

Darn it! I can't see the images. I think I'll have to look again tonight when I get home - I think my company is filtering certain web sites!

Love the pillow.
Which Thrift Store was this? The Right Stuff, in the old TGY shopping center?
