Draining washing machine into yard
What you are looking for is the Laundry-To-Landscape system: http://oasisdesign.net/greywater/laundry/

This system works very well and is easy to implement yourself at very low cost. I have implemented it myself and it works perfectly, providing much needed irrigation water to my parched desert yard (not a problem in Mississippi I imagine!). And unless you're washing poopy diapers, laundry is graywater, so it's not a health hazard. You could direct the water to mulched trees, or a gravel-filled trench you could dig. But don't just dump it onto the grass.
