Ta-da! Points to all of you who guessed outhouse. Thankfully the holes were filled in with soil. Someone suggested the seats might be "sell-able." It is pretty cool to have something that, historically, is not made any more. We pulled them out and as you can see...we are obviously going to turn them into a cool bean bag toss game - corn hole has never made more sense to me than now. I'm not joking, that's what we are going to do with the "seats."
