It's better to paint an attractive scene on the outside of the outhouse, along with a name, like "Latrino", it makes it seem like a vacation to Italy.

We got our first indoor toilet in 53. My mother used to give me a bath in a galvanized tub in the kitchen using hot water heated on a coal stove. In retrospect, what cracks me up was that we had a FADA television in 1949.

All I remember from the outhouse was spiders and a big catalogue.

The smell strikes my chords of memory. ;’) We shed our, uh, shed early in the 1960s.
