Some years ago while I was still living in Oslo I had the idea of making an outdoors shower.
I though it would be so cool to shower in the garden. Wearing bathing trunks off course, didn't want to scare the birds.
The setup was easy, a large shower head fastened to a long hose.
I then fastened the shower head on a big tree branch.
It worked like a dream.
I didn't use it as much as I though I would.
Just a little to much work in the mornings to go outside.
But the idea was cool, right?
Have a fab weekend all.

Looks like so much fun after a hot day! Great. If I ever have a garden this big, I will be sure to install this "tree shower".

Very cool idea and I could kick myself because I passed up a ladder like the one in the photo last week at an estate sale. UGH! Have a great weekend.

I totally dig the outdoor shower concept. When I was younger, we had a camp that only had an outdoor shower. It was totally cool to take a shower buck naked in the middle of nowhere. Great freedom! LOL

Ha! My parents build an outdoor shower in their (urban) back yard, plumbed with hot water. They shower outdoor every morning from late spring to early fall. They don't wear shorts.

I love it Paul! I have had this same dream but still need to make one. Using a hose is a brilliant idea and so much more simple than I had been thinking.

I love the way you take something seemingly ordinary and make it
something more grand! You are an inspiration.

I always do pitching in other blogs. I do it with confidence about the topics I bring and also I do it in a decent way with no negativity so that the relationship between the blog owner and me will not go smooth.
