Dooty Station


Day 343: When I signed up for a tour of dooty at the Puyallup Fair representing Mount Rainier National Park, I really should have asked out Outreach Manager to spell it out clearly. Yep, for the last two days, I have been explaining the differences between doo-doos to youngsters utterly enchanted by the subject. Oh, kids love this exhibit! The supplies are very true to life and it's not uncommon for them to believe it's the real McCoy at first. Some bravely touch it while others shy away. Usually, a little parental coaxing is enough to break the spell. The adults are more likely to converse among themselves to ask, "Isn't that like what you saw in the yard last week?" or "That's what I saw up at the cabin!"

You have to admit it isn't every day you get a tour of dooty at an interpretive display!
