They were in a few different places so we didn't realise until today that we had 22 towels. That seems a lot for two people. So we had a cut session.
It's a bit like the sports coach who has to pick the final team from a squad of players. In that spirit, we picked our final line-up of 4 bath towels, 2 guest towels, 4 beach towels and one guest beach towel.
As I write this, even 11 sounds like a lot. But we're making progress. Also, we know of someone in need who could use a towel or two - so that's also a great incentive to lighten our load.
PS. As I wrote this I assumed that 22 was an unusually large number for two people. It just seemed big. Perhaps it's normal. What do you think? How many do you have?

A lot! More than 22...they are almost all inherited. For 2 people and a dog I have about 4 beach towels, 6 main towels, 2 lightweight camping towels, 6 guest towels and about 10 towels that are very ratty and used for the dog (dog blankets, cleaning up muddy paws, etc). I plan to use them until they're beyond repair (they will continue to get downgraded until they're too ratty even to use on the dog) then give them to my husband who will use them as shop rags...except the camping towels.
