By the time I came along, we had TP. But no running water, electricity or phone until I was 6.

At one point, for a few years, we had a three hole outhouse.

I went out to use it in the night, and since the moon was out, didn't turn on my flashlight to save batteries.

After sitting down over the middle hole, I heard a gnawing on wood sound to my left. I turned on the flashlight and looked into the beady eyes of a large porcupine.

Was I ever glad I hadn't sat on that hole! Went back to the house, got a .22, shot the thing, and it fell in.

Smelled worse in there for a few weeks.

I am proud of you. I would have screamed bloody murder and
