Nope, for us 71 trips is 1 year and 19 weeks. I figure 6 loads (2 for her, 2 for me, and 1 for towels) per trip. The machines cost a lot out here, they are kept outdoors so they deteriorate quickly, and the cost of electricity and water is high.

And who knows where we'll be in another year and a half. We might be moving in with you!
