A SMALL OUTHOUSE, A SHORT SURPRISE, A BIG TRACTOR SHOW

We parked the golf cart to explore the Amish vendors wares of 6 people bob sled, sleighs, snow sleds, wooden drawers, wood lathe, wash tubs, and a yard decoration that looked like an outhouse.

The Amish man said it's used to cover well caps and sewer lids; yard decoration.

I always open trinket box lids, and treasure-like chests.  Jeani opens outhouses.  I wonder if she'll double think it next time.

  Thinking it was empty, she pulled the little black handle of the red wood and aluminum roof structure, opened the door, let out a squeal, "Ahhhhhhhhhh", snapped it shut, and simultaneously jumped back behind me!

Good lands!  What on earth!  What's in there?  What'd she see?

She was bent at the waist, hands up, still so excited she was unable to talk.  I thought maybe it was an wild animal or maybe even a snake!  

Some male passerby begged her to re-enact it so he could get a video!  

I couldn't stand it.  Tentatively, I reached for the black handle.  Oh my goodness, what will I see?

Little black legs were straight out at the side.

Little somber black eyes looked back UP at me.

Blonde hair in a bowl cut topped the eyes.

A very small young Amish boy was silently sitting inside!!!!!



"Jeani, you nut, you slammed the door on the little guy!'

She said, "No kidding, I thought it was empty, it was not!!!"

We were ROFLOHO!

Of note, the next time we drove by, dad had upped the price, LOL
