I can’t imagine the necessity of that, I like my privacy. The “flush” was ashes from the woodstove. For me as a kid, that was the fun part. Scooping up a can of ashes and pouring them down the hole.<br /><br />Another great picture-worth a thousand words.Janice Garrisonhttp://gatheringrubies.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22919221.post-21384009769619775942009-11-03T17:38:13.222-08:002009-11-03T17:38:13.222-08:00Having seen and used any number of those fancy lit...Having seen and used any number of those fancy little buildings, I am amazed at how they all look about the same!<br /><br />I've been on a half dozen or more mission trips into central Mexico to build houses and it seemed my forte was the building of the family's new outhouse! Now I wonder if that was because I came from the deep south, or because I knew a thing or two about carpentry and the houses were build of concrete blocks?Stoogeloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14634101864997990617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22919221.post-20457898133785378572009-11-03T16:37:25.590-08:002009-11-03T16:37:25.590-08:00That was the one thing I did not like about going ...That was the one thing I did not like about going to my grandparents' house.

Yes, they still use an outhouse!! It is crazy. I remember visiting them ask a small kid and being freaked out by it. Nasty and sad. :-( Every Saturday night they boil their water for their weekly bath so they won't stink at church. I think everyone has those relatives. LOL <br /><br />Hope you have a great day!preachermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09922837614859997243noreply@blogger.com
