I gotta agree with you there. Cardiologist said no rollercoasters or caffeine for me. Which is sad bc my grandma went to Disneyland & rode rollercoasters when she was 80. My mom liked to tell me horror stories about rollercoasters falling apart and riders dying whenever we were on one together when I was a kid.
I'm going to make a fortune... be able to add a 2nd hole to the outhouse.
We had 3 'toilets in ours. Lots of kids and ex city slicker mama didn't want anyone taking care of business in the woods so she was glad it came that way.Not a good place to hide and smoke one of the worse beatings litttle brother and I got was mama saw the smoke piling out of the outhouse. She would stripe us with the switch,then think about and get all mad again and switch us some more and every word was emphecized . What a memory she had!

Jim that is painful to look at. I've had enough hooks under the skin to know what that would feel like. And getting it out.
LOL! I remember going fishing with my family. I wanted to cast myself and my mom kept wanting to do it for me. I was always pretty determined to do things for myself. Got that hook caught in my back side. I'll bet my mom knew I was going to hook myself. And it is one of the things I still remember about my mom and childhood!Jim that is painful to look at.

My paternal grandfather was born in 1903 so he & his sisters grew up using an outhouse. There was a hole in the backside of the outhouse below the seat. One day while his sister was on the crapper, he got a two-pronged stick and poked her with it while making a snake hissing sound. Supposedly she came flying out of there screaming with her skirt over her head. I never met him (he died when my Dad was 17 or 18) but he sounded like a prankster.
They are so adorable!! I miss having bitties. Raised 51 of them for 4H. First we had a brooder box inside the house, then we moved them to a larger custom made (by my Dad) brooder box in the barn-- automatic waterer, large feeders, heat lamps, chickenwire to keep snakes out (Still have that old brooder box down there-- it's massive). When they were big enough they graduated to the chicken house & yard with a pond.Too funny… I was using an infrared thermometer to check the container temp my baby chicks are in… Who knew peeps would chase a laser light?
