Amy, I also remember a hand pump somewhere when I was little. It may have been in West Virginia where my dad’s sister lived. I remember them having an outhouse. I hadn’t been around one and I thought it was so exciting. They took baths in a great big wash tub in a little basement area. I do remember the ‘outhouse’ didn’t smell so good!!LOL~~
Ah, the ole outhouse. We had those when I was a kid. Had to outrun the rooster every time I had to go there. Mean rooster. Would you believe that when we moved to WV in 92 and I took a four-church circuit, that three of the four churches had outhouses?
