"Utedo" is outhouse and it is inside - in a museum

All over Norway you can still see such small outhouses,

though in most places I don't think they are in use any more.

If they are in use, it is probably for a summer house.

But I remember a few outhouses from my life, though not as

elegant as this one.

Place for two, a grownup and a child.

Old newspapers.

Sometimes old telephone catalogues, I am told.

My Norwegian grandmother had a summer house

next to the Oslofjord with an outhouse.

My Swedish grandparents moved to another farm

in the end of the 1950's. Till they installed a WC inside

the house, we used the outhouse.

Another relative has a summerhouse next to a lake.

Still now, visiting her, means using her outhouse.

To learn more about outhouses, you can visit the present

exhibition at the Municipal museum of Moss.

I will have to decide if I am going to share more of what I saw there.
