John and Nora Scott's "Outhouse Races 2004" album

John and Nora Scott's "Outhouse Races 2004" album http://public.fotki.com/jlscott/outhouse_races_2004/ For the last 27 years there has been a custom in Chatanika Alaska that started out as an idea at a birthday party for a local. These were truckdrivers that worked for a local company. It started as a joke at first and ended up turning into annual event. Fotki.com http://images.fotki.com/logo3.gif http://public.fotki.com/jlscott/outhouse_races_2004/ I put four photo's together to make one. I couldn't get the whole thing in one shot... http://public.fotki.com/jlscott/outhouse_races_2004/dredge.html
