POTTY BREAK 

 

Uncle Bob and Aunt Jean DeMarco lived across from us as we lived on the junkyard.

I played with my cousin's David, Cathy, and Joey, that lived there.

We had a big family, and they always made many visits to each other's homes, and we all helped who ever needed help.  And it always involved tons of food, mostly spaghetti, and usually turned into a card party.

I remember people putting floors in, a roof on, etc.

But this one time, the family's were called together for a barn tearing down party.

Uncle Bobby wanted his barn torn down across the street.

We have another Uncle Bob and Aunt Jean.  There last name is Weston.  so, when we're all together, you need to specify which one.

The men started the task of tearing down the barn as the woman started the cooking.

The only thing about their barn was that the outhouse was attached to the side of the barn.

The story goes that the barn was finally gone with the outhouse still standing, with one wall gone.

With most of the family standing where the barn once stood, Aunt Jean Weston went to the front door of the outhouse, opened it, went in and closed the door, and sat down to do her job in a very natural way.

From what I understand, she was well into her process before she realized that she had an audience.
