|

Hosted by Historic Penn's Store (America's oldest country store in ownership and operation by the same family), the 2005 G.O.B. will be held Saturday, OCTOBER 1, 2005 beginning at 10 am. at Historic Penn's Store ... 3 miles southeast of Gravel Switch, Kentucky.

| Well how about that!!!! We finally got recognized for all the work we put into preserving the historical significance of The Outhouse! We will be creating a special edition of the U. P. Daily News with new information about this. | |
| The last picture above is the "NEW" Outhouse that they built in the park. Although they are drop through toilets, they just aren't the same as the real Outhouses located nearby. The new Outhouses can be pumped out, which probably pleases the health officials a lot since they are located a short walk from the Clinton River. | |
| All of the shots above can be sold to you in any size you want up to 11 x 14. Prices are on the Outhouses of America Tour store. A link to the store is located at the top of this page. If you are interested in an enlargement, contact us using the link below. Pictures sent to you will not have the web site address on them and they won't have a drop shadow or any embossing. Thanks for supporting the Outhouses of America Tour. Help keep this historical tour about Outhouses going! | |
| What else can you see in the images shown? Many times a photo is worth a thousand words and I've only elaborated with a few so why don't you add some "color commentary" to my collection. If your addition is worthy, you will find the quote added on the Comments to the Curator page. | |
