Pat....

.....I think it was in the book, "I Heard The Owl Call My Name", that I read of the little boy that got frozen to the board seat in the school house outhouse and they had to get out the tools and pry the hole seat loose and carry him into the school room and set him near the heating stove so he could thaw enough to get loose and pull his pants up.

We had three outhouses around the sheds, I can just see that snow piled up....even though of course we never had snow. Just spiders!!

Good Afternoon

My grandparents had an outhouse too.  We've had some really bad winters in Cleveland.  Thankfully we have indoor plumbing.

We had a bad Winter in1948 I remember as a boy crawling under our old van and fixing snow chains. I don't think My Dad was able he had pneumonia for three winters running, there was no cure in those days just stay in bed until hopefully one felt better as of course you know.🌺🌺
