\u201cOnce you have two of something,\u201d Carolyn said, \u201cyou have a collection and people want to add to it.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This dynamic and energetic speaker has been collecting a plethora of memoralbilia pertaining to the privy for over 35-years.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In her display, she has\u00a0 a 1908 Sears Roebuck Catalogue, from which you could buy anything from nails, screws , and linens to a whole house, as well as plans and materials to build your own Out House. Among the many items was one labelled \u201cAfter-Dinner Rolls\u201d.\u00a0 It was a wooden holder for two rolls of toilet paper.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cUsually, the privy was located a short distance away from the home and sported a moon for the ladies and a star for the gents,\u201d Adriaansne said. \u201cOne wealthy home owner had a two-story brick \u201chouse\u201d attached to his home,\u00a0 voila! an upstairs bathroom and a downstairs bathroom.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carolyn shared numerous humorous potty jokes and stories with her audience, which need to be heard to be appreciated. She even wears a small privy pendant on a chain.\u00a0 The little door opens to expose \u2026well, just open the door and find out!<\/p>\n
