This last weekend I went to Lake Arrowhead with the Reimers. While on a hike/walk (the treacherous river made this a hike), John led Scott and I to Splinters where there are picnic tables and restrooms. Let me describe the restrooms: A unisex hut with a toilet (see photo) that you DON'T FLUSH because it goes down three feet into the earth. Woah. The plus side to this is that you can zip and go, but that really doesn't have much greatness when you're hiking in the woods, because you're not in much of a hurry. Also, a minus side to no flusher is that you could accidentally drop something down it. You might also fall in it yourself if you're small enough.
Anyway, I had such a thrill using this no-nonsense toilet that I had to take a picture of it. Then I realized there was no sink and I couldn't wash my hands. There are lots of minuses to that. I have to admit that when we got to the river, I ran my hands in the cold water, so if you're ever up there, don't drink from it.

That's a riot.
