Reminds me of a time my friend Ron and I were hunting quail and got caught in a driving rain. We were soaked, came back to the motel and changed our clothes. We took the wet clothes to the laundromat. Someone stole our clothes. I went back later and the clothes were folded and stacked.

Used to be a place at A&M called the Scrub Pub. A laundry mat with a bar so you could have a couple while you wait. It was genius!

Laundromat, been that way in Abilene since the 1950's. “Washateria” Another name for a laundromat, the term “washateria” originated in Fort Worth, Texas, after Noah Brannen opened the first self-service laundry facility in 1936.

We took the wet clothes to the laundromat. Someone stole our clothes. I went back later and the clothes were folded and stacked. I just...…...bare.......ly do believe this...….. But then, I had a car stolen once...… I eventually found it..... The thief, had washed,...…. and detailed it.... Had the oil changed...….. The tires rotated...… And even polished my old hunting boots, in the back seat....
