No, before you ask....that ain't me in the picture. We're up in the Arctic. We're camping, fishing, drinking beer and having a great time with life. Yes...nature calls and no....there is no plumbing. Mother Nature is kind enough to share when "nature calls." I go up here with my dad and my brothers. It's a great taste of the simple life. So simple that nature provides its own toilet and we provide the protection.

Hi Larry, I have seen outhouses and have even been in one, but I have never seen an arctic outhouse. I will refrain from making any jokes. ;o)

Larry - this is hilarious, and it is a very "campy" photo. I wonder if it does come with a heater . . lol!

Caring expertise...knowledge for you!
I grew up with a summer cottage/outhouse system, and it was much 'grander' than this. I know a realtor in another province who collects photos of outhouses, as part of his promo, and he'd probably be interested in this one!

I just have to clarify....There seems to be a definite silhouette of someone in there in your photo...dare I ask?

Li....feel the ability to share to your heat's content.
Ron...I know an outhouse, but don't know squat (no pun intended) about we protocol.
Debbie....I don't remember who......I'd call them out if I remembered.

1 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
