Outhouse Part Deux [13+]
I remember the smell of rotting tomatoes while 'taking care of business' as a child. I suspect that anything rotting was thrown into my grandparents' outhouse.

Outhouses were topped with lime and eventually moved to a newly dug hole and the old one filled.

Most anything was thrown into outhouses. I shudder to think of outhouses in cemeteries... I'm sure they once were common. If not for the guests then for the ground crews and grave diggers.

But... if an outhouse isn't available just use an empty grave. Remember to top with plastic flowers as that stuff is toxic to anything living.
