Would you?

Very disturbing. I can do two showers a day easily.

When you lose partial or full control of your holding tank and pipe valves due to age, I'm thinking 3-4 showers a day, if not for you for the people who have to sit downwind of you.

I need to throw up now. Brb

My dad, 80 yrs old, boggles my wife/kids mind when he tells about growing up in the country (not far from LOTO) with no electric/water/bathtub/bathroom... AND growing/rasing all of their own food... My father wired his parents house with a kit from Sears & Robuck when he was 16, one light bulb per room...

My grandpa, on his deathbed (mid 80's) looked up at the ceiling and pointed to the A.C. vent... He said to me "that was the downfall of mankind", he didn't know his own wife OR kids but I think he knew what he was trying to communicate to me...

My gramps farmed with mules, built barns for a living, hauled lumber that his father would saw with their steam saw mill, used his mule teams to haul out logs that his brothers would fell to clear farm ground and create pasture... He liked dynomite to remove stumps, split oak logs for fence rails/posts (treated the bottoms with a barrel of creosote)... Raised all of his own beef and didn't care much for pork, cut hay and grew/mixed his own cattle feed...

Built 5 houses (not counting my uncles home (that lives on the farm still)) on his farm (his last at 80yrs of age) and sold them off after he would build a new one...

My grandpa's pride, his barn with his black baldies...



He was a real tough nut...



I bet he smelled like a goat at the end of the day, wearing his union suit over his bibs, long sleeve shirt/Tshirt all buttoned/zipped up to his chin... In the sweltering Missouri heat/humidity...
