"Thunderboxes"
Chances are you've never used one, but all this month some of the prettiest outhouses in Texas are on display in downtown San Antonio.
The "Thunderbox Road "art exhibit is going on at the Menger Hotel.
Here are 9 of 12 full-sized "Thunderboxes" (or outhouses) painted and decorated in true Texas style.
Sonja Howle with the "Thunderbox Road" exhibit says, "It was created to pay tribute and showcase the talent we have in the Hill Country artists."
In February, the exhibit will be at the San Antonio stock Show and Rodeo.
After their tour, the outhouses will be auctioned off to benefit
medical research and the Western Art Museum in Kerrville.
Now doesn't that spruce them up a bit. I like the one with the flames coming out of it.
ReplyDeleteMUCH prettier than the outhouses from my childhood!!!!!!!Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI kinda like that one also Rick! Who would have thought to do something like this back then...
ReplyDeleteI remember those outhouses also Virginia...we even had one at a hunting camp that my husband belonged to. It was not dressed up that these are! Thanks for coming by Virginia and Rick and glad you liked them. A worthy cause! :)
Love it! Our town did something like this but it was with cows. I like the outhouses better. I bet they just make you smile when you ride by them....I know I would giggle each time
ReplyDeleteI love it too LB @ BulletsandBiscuits...I had a guy to make a comment on Facebook that he was more concerned with what the inside looked like! :) Thanks for coming by! :)
