For those who have many swimsuits and other triathlon equipment that constantly needs washing and drying, it is best to have a nice big lanai on the top (5th) floor of the house. Here there is a good breeze plus running water and a washing machine and everything can be attached to hangers and hoisted up so that they are well out of everyone's way. Shoes can be left here to dry (if wet), otherwise the garage downstairs will do.
OK, since several people have tagged me today, here it is. If you read this, you may want to do one yourself.

If I were a billionaire, I would:
