Outside shower is gone


The outside shower hasn't worked for several years. At first it stopped draining and then the water didn't run, it just trickled. The problem was that there was no roof on it so when it rained it filled up with water and had become a mosquito breeding place. So, I had it removed. I am having another shower put up on the outside of the pantry wall so people can rinse off after the beach, but it will just drain onto the ground. I can't believe how big it makes my mini yard look just having it gone. Guess I will be painting the side of the garage this Labor Day.

Yup. You need a fence.

I probably took a shower there 50 or 60 years ago. I will never forget it! :(

With a fence and a patio with some potted plants, it will look really nice.

Agree with my sisters, a fence is a must. I also think a patio would be nice, you could get a nice big parasol and have a nice shady area to relax in!

Didn't mean to be anonymous, but it's pretty obvious it was me!

Hopefully the fence will be in by next week end. The patio may have to wait because I'd like to cover that entire garden area, but my pineapple plants are there and they need one more year before they produce fruit. I've got them this far. I need to post a picture of the new outside shower. It will be for rinsing off after the beach, but still hot and cold running water.

How about rinsing some fishing gear?

Do pineapples grow on trees? Curious to know how pineapple plants produce fruit...

You seem to have pretty good luck inadvertently growing stuff. Perhaps you could try putting a few dollar bills in the soil and see if you could grow a money tree. If it works, I think I should get some of the produce since it was my idea. (Wink, wink) :o)

I have a couple of silver dollars and a gold one. If it works I won't need the money because I'll be able to sell my secret and get rich that way. I'll share the money with anyone who wants to come and harvest it.
