Random Bathroom Update

I have said before, to some, that my life has a running theme that seems at times to revolve around a variety of activities based in the bathroom. Between child rearing, dog owning and an unfortunate genetic make up, I feel I do spend an abnormal amount of time being concerned with events having to do with the water closet. This being said, I feel I must report on the facilities graciously provided by the Wasatch National Forest at Mirror Lake. The exterior looks promising as it is a permanent structure, stylish and lodge like in design. After waiting as long as I dared it was with odd and conflicting feelings of relief and disappointment that I went inside to find what at first looked like a regular and in fact luxuriously elongated toilet. Once my eyes focused, I realized that the person who had just exited before me was not, as it turns out, being rude when they did not flush because this toilet does not flush. The seat sits on top of a base that goes all the way to the ground. I knew that, like when one finds themselves trapped high up on a ledge, I should not look down, but curiosity got the best of me. Let me just say its a long way down (thank goodness) and you should really NOT look down. Just to clarify, it was lovely of them to provide the facilities (and paper, too) and I do not want to appear ungrateful. I have never been a rustic girl and I know I never will be. I think I am resolved to take short day trips into the wilderness and to remember to bring plenty of hand sanitizer on the adventure. If this is not an option, a simple 5 star hotel will do me just fine.
