Two holers were invented as a place two women could get out of the weather to gossip out of earshot of others. Also, the holes are usually of two sizes, one to accommodate (nice word, huh?) children and smaller women. Some outhouses have three holes of various sizes. Love this quote: Believe me, you don't want to experience the terror of being a 5-year-old using an outhouse with only one drop that is 6 sizes too big for your scrawny chicken ass. My father, a carpenter by trade, made me a small wooden booster for it, but I still had this fear. It's not the same fear of falling into the ceramic bowl where you make a little splash. In the outhouse, there is a cold stench under those buns emanating from unwholesome darkness. You just don't know what's down there, only that it is very bad. We also had an owl living in there, which made going after dark all the more unnerving. Those were days of adventure, let me tell you. posted by mrmojoflying > > On 9 Feb 2012, at 05:26, Chris Crawford wrote: > >> http://chriscrawfordphoto.com/chris-details.php?prodId=939&category=4 >> >> Another photo from the farm I photographed a few days ago. >> -- Regards, Sonny http://sonc.com/look/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA
