Loo for two...

Memorial Day Weekend 2009, we headed down to Spotted Bear Campground, which is about as far as you can drive off the beaten path and still find an established campground. It's a long drive down the Hungry Horse Reservoir, but it's beautiful. We stopped about half way to stretch our legs and use the privy.

I walked over to the pit toilets and opened the door. I just about got my pants down to my knees when I heard crazy scurrying, scratching and moving. I let out a shriek and was out the door before I even had my pants pulled all the way back up. What if it had been a BEAR???

I caught the culprit on film once I had emptied my bladder (behind a tree and thankfully not on the floor of the pit toilet) and retrieved my camera. Privies can be home to numerous small creatures...but this was the first time I had actually been startled by one and not known it was there.

Killer squirrel. I just know it.
