    Arlo and Janis: Outdoor Shower
    https://www.gocomics.com/arloandjanis/2026/04/14

    All outdoor showers that I have seen have a door. That is, outdoor
    showers not just using a garden hose.

    Go to the previous day to see Janis in the outdoor shower without a door.

    I've certainly encountered beach properties with doorless outdoor
    showers. Unless it's on a private beach one would shower while still
    wearing one's bathing suit.

    I believe this house is rather secluded, with no neighbors behind.

    I think it's a mistake rCo a very tempting mistake to make rCo
    to take stock by looking at what we still have rather than
    what we have already lost. - M. Gessen

    Some of the bush-tramping over-night-stay buildings here in New
    Zdealand have walled outdoor showers - they are in teh middle of
    nowhere with no other buildings anywhere around.

    Most outdoor showers (and the outdoor public urinals in places like
    Paris) have a couple of walls that make a sort-of @-shaped "maze"
    passageway in.

    Some beaches here in New Zealand do (did?) have just a shower head on a
    pole, with no walls or doors at all, at the edge of the car parking
    area that is for washing off the sand and salt water after you've been
    on the beach. People are of course meant to still be wearing their
    beach shorts / swimsuit, although no doubt there is the occasional
    moron who thinks rules don't apply tp them.

    I recall the kids skinny dipping in the pond after a hard day's work.

    ...and a faint memory of Arlo and Janis bare in an outdoor hot tub.
