Outhouses at Sunset

Outhouses, Indian Springs Camp Meeting Grounds

Hey, they look quite nice in that late afternoon light. I took this at the Indian Springs Camp meeting grounds. The wooden cabins are in a circle and the outhouses match up to the cabins in a bigger circle outside. Each wooden tent cabin has it's own numbered outhouse.

I've used enough outhouses in my life to last me forever. When I get back from a trip overseas now, I want to get on the floor and hug the first porcelain flush toilet that I find. We are sooooo fortunate.

Whenever we would visit my great-grandmother I made sure I did not have to use hers.

Beautiful light and color. Yes, I remember when my grandmother still used one of these, in Sewanee, Tennessee!

That is why it always amazes me that people trash public bathrooms. Seriously? You are given a beautiful bathroom and they leave toilet paper all over the floor, pee on the seat....sheeesh.

My grandmother in Canada had one in her orchard for use when you were outside. Of course I grew up with one in India.

Young people today would have never used them unless they traveled.

Pretty classy lookin' outhouses, and I know what you mean about the conveniences we have. I had a relatively interesting experience in outhouse in Dec/Jan in Siberia. Never to be repeated.
