I got a comment on the last blog posting about cleaning pit toilets. Most people don’t like doing it, but it really isn’t that bad. We have two campgrounds with the old, barn red wooden restrooms, but the rest have new, modern fiberglass jobs. We even have a newly restored log cabin style “four holer” that is pretty rare.
John and Carol: Pit toilets aren't that bad to clean. If you clean them everyday there's no odor at all. If there is we put a urinal cake in the window sill and the incoming breeze makes for a pleasant scent. Sometimes we use a few moth balls in a square of netting for the same purpose. We clean our restrooms with Pinesol and it does a good job. Jim prides himself on all the compliments he gets on having the cleanest pit toilets people have ever used.
Now have you learned more than you ever wanted to know about pit toilets?
------------------------------------
Jim has been busy “having to go fishing” to provide for my new vegetarian diet. He has been catching his limit of four fish each time he goes out too.
 Nice rainbow trout straight from Big Meadows Reservoir |  That’s an 11” pan so they were pretty good size. |
To top off our meal I made an opened-faced apple pie that’s quick and easy.
Remember, you are loved.
OMG, that meal looks delicious! Who would eat tempeh when they had Jim bringing home fresh trout??? And the tart - my god, lady, don't you realize you live in the boonies and should be eating gathered nettles???
ReplyDeleteI loved your post--from pit toilets to food! I never had to clean a pit toilet while I worked in a State Park--the park had one pit toilet and two very modern facilities. However, someone told me that IF I had to, to wear a surgical mask or other type of mask with a dab of Vicks inside the mask. He had been a coroner and had dealt with some pretty gruesome cases.
ReplyDeleteI love the bright scenery pictures. Great new look!

The fish look delicious
ReplyDeleteHow is the weather up there in the mountains? We will be in that area in a week or so.
ReplyDeleteGreat tips for cleaning pit toilets. The tip from Bev is well worth remembering too. I'm sure in one of our future workamping jobs this will come in very handy.
ReplyDeleteYour dinner sure looks delicious. Happy fishing!
