I do owe the Canadians an apolgy though

The other day I read in my local news paper a story about how there are a few small towns in the State of Maine, US of A whose resident still use outhouses as their way of relieving themselves.

Now I would have sworn that this would be a regular occurance in Canada, not here in the US of A.

We have a few outhouses on our farm that we use as garden tool sheds. The newest one we got last year was being used by an old man who passed away last year. I live in Pennsylvania, so they are probably still being used everywhere at some points. Some parks still use them. We have a two holer

Hey, you replied, Shammy!

I think he is funny, I get a kick out of him. Takes all kinds, after all.

Glad that you learned something new today, Stogey- everyone should aim to learn something every day.

Not many outhouses left around here. Although the last overnight hunting trip DH took me on, we slept in a trailer in someone's yard that they rent out to hunters, and we had to use an old outhouse. It was November so I remember it was damn cold.
