At one time, fish said he was tired of seeing egrets. Well, it's time to say
good by to those beautiful birds. It might have been Ginger, Waxy or maybe
even fish that threw down the porta-potty gauntlet.

In Palo Alto, they try and hide 'em. Or maybe prevent them from being blown
over by the wind. Who knows? I give you the Palo Alto version of a
porta-potty.

The challenge is on. For the month of April, show us your best porta-potty.

    I'm in ;-)
    I'm so excited. I mean Egret Fest was great, but like looking forward to Opening Day, most shooters really look forward to the Porta-Potty Fest clap.gifclap.gif


    Now that Winter is over for most of us, we'll be on the road shooting (and eating....lol). Nothing says WELCOME like these colorful plastic enclosures mwink.gif A place to leave your worries and cares behind so you can continue to eat, drink and have fun away from home thumb.gif "The butt stops here" :lol

    Here's an 8 pack of PP's I shot over in Santa Cruz. A place where the whole family can GO :lol4 8 packs are so rare, I believe the city father's are trying to make this place a historic State site rolleyes1.gif

    Keep Santa Cruz weird thumb.gif

    Here's one of the scariest PP shots I've ever seen

    Great idea Ian clap.gifclap.gif OK folks, let's see those Porta-potties thumb.gif

    Porta What? at Montara
    In Montara by the Old Chart House Restuarant (now vacant) there's a small lot up on the cliff which is caving in... but that doesn't stop our brave ocean goers at all... Anyway there are two porta potties in an enclosure near the road.

    You can imagine my surprise when I saw what was inside!

    Talk about recycling! For those who have never flown on an airplane, this is an airplane toilet, grounded for all time in Montara! :D

    At the GP a few years back they had about 50 of the stinkin' things lined up along the back of a hill. Couple of the lads were pissed to the eyeballs on local brew & when one of their mates got in it....the others rolled it down the hill with him in it.

    You'd think that for 2.5M each, they'd spring for flush terlits with a nicer
    seating area lol3.gif
