What's the problem?  It's got a roof.

Yeah but there's a hole in the door and what looks like a big gap under the door. All kinds of bugs could get in there. How did you empty the poo once the tank got full?

I know they use a big vacuum to empty portapoties but I doubt that was available if you couldn't even afford a real bathroom.

When we had to use ours in the winter in Michigan we had to carry an axe for the snow snakes.

Of course, when it was really bad, and in the middle of the night when the ice badgers were out, there was always the honey pot under the bed. Guess who got to carry it out to the outhouse and empty it every morning?

Stephanie

We had ice badgers the size of a car!!! Take yer head right off!!!

Hey!... How come no one has told the story about waking up when they were 5 years old at 4AM to milk the cows and then walking 10 miles to and from school... Uphill in both directions?

Milk a cow?? Ewww.  I would also never drink milk right out of a cow. It needs to be processed at a factory so it's disinfected and everything and safe from germs.

Crabs? I thought crabs hung out at beaches and warm places.

That's what they want you to think.

Many moons ago we visited my uncle's family in Michigan's U.P. the walls were wood and had only a tar paper covering on the outside. They did have a wood floor and an out house.

When I was a youngin', the third of four, my ma and pa had a flatbed truck.  No stakes, no sides.  We sat shoulder to shoulder, outside against the back of the cab as we zoomed down the road.  Think ma and pa Kettle.

OMG, that's totally dangerous. If my dad saw something like that the person for sure would get a ticket and knowing him he would yell at the person about endangering children. That might get a ticket too. I'm not sure.

Most certainly it is frowned on now Julia, but that was the way it was in rural Washington in the 50's.  Youngin', have you learned anything from us oldens yet?

I've learned life was really hard and  really sucked back then and I'm even more appreciative of technology.

Soda pop machines where you would pull out a glass bottle.  Occasionally you see one in use but more are likely kept by collectors than to sell soda.  The machines had a bottle cap remover to pry off the caps.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

It is what we knew.  I certainly appreciate the safety advances.
