The Blizzard And The Outhouse

This is another funny story, about Linda’s and my trip;

It happened on our way out west, before reaching the Vegas Strip!

Every time we passed a “Dairy Queen”, she’d make baby face and pout;

Said “Won’t you stop and get me a Blizzard, the best thing there no doubt”!

After three days of her constant nagging, just before the Arizona state line;

We saw a sign for a Dairy Queen, so I stopped before she whined!

She raced in and got the “large” one, then downed it very fast;

We crossed into sunny Arizona, when on her face, a frown she cast!

She hadn’t realized it was not ice cream, frozen yogurt there they use;

At that time her tummy was allergic, and she badly had to poo!

At the first exit was a trading post, she went flying in the door;

They said “You’ll have to use the outhouse, the bathrooms broken in the store”!

Out she flew in full trot, to a little wooden stall;

I jumped out for I was worried, “Linda, are you allright to her I called”!

She said “I’m okay, give me a minute, for I’m holding my every breath”;

“This place stinks to such high Heaven”, then used a word that starts with “F”!

She came out a little shaken, I bit my tongue so not to laugh;

I captured this special moment, on these two old photographs!

After that, when she saw a Dairy Queen, she’d turn her face away;

We still remember The Blizzard And The Outhouse, we share it with you today!

The first photograph is the real Dairy Queen where part of this story took place.  When Linda realized that I was actually taking her for a Blizzard, she just had to take a photograph of the store.  Sorry for the little overexposure on the second photo, but it is the only one of the Yellowhorse Trading Post, where I guess, you’ve surmised by reading our story, plumbing was not one of their major concerns.
