Here is mine....
What is yours?
BTW....a great trick while camping.....loop paracord around a couple trees about 15 to 20 foot apart....take a stick and place it in the center of the lines....and twist up the paracord....allow the stick to become the center leg when twisted enough....
Hang clothes on this line by just using a small pointed stick to pry the twist apart and insert corners of things to be dried....no need for clothes pins....

I am planning pretty much the same thing. 2 buckets one for wash one for rinse. Then a clothes line for drying. You could also make 2-3 T post for the lines. Makes 15-25' into 60-100' whick may be more than you need but for sheets or bedding it would be noice to have the space. In particular if you have a big group.
I have a ele. washing machine and will continue to use it after shtf. As long as there is wood and sunshine I will have ele.

When I can afford it I plan on getting the James Washer with the Magic Washer as back up and pre-cleaning.

i have the plunger above but mine is metal, 4 wash tubs with drains and a hand cranked roller to squeeze the water out. I also have two maytag wringer washers as long as we have gasoline to run them, My better half tells me we better have a lot of gas stored.
A couple of tubs, plunger and clothes line with plenty of clothespins. I do like my washer I plan on putting in a solar array to keep the electricity going as long as possible. However the above is plan B.
I have a variety of washboards and a couple industrial sinks. clothes lines both inside and out.
A buddy has an old wringer out at the farm that is just collecting ... well everything... I'm trying to talk him out of it.

I have a plunger as above and an old wringer/folding table combo as well as 2 washtubs I got at Home Depot (gag). But as my old wringer needs some work I looked up wringers and came up with some options that aren't Lehmans ($179). Here are the links:
