South of the house is the summer kitchen. Electricity in Russia is 230 volts and operates the TV, refrigerator and electric fan. The cook stove uses propane gas and the bottle is inside next to the stove. The wash basin is outside the summer kitchen door. It has a reservoir behind the mirror for clean water and flows by gravity.
Warm water is heated in a tea kettle in the summer kitchen and brought out to the basin.
A bucket under the sink catches the dirty sink water. Next to the kitchen was the wash house and work shed. Next was a shower house with a barrel of water on top. The sun heated this water. Another 50 feet, by a wooden walk, was the one-hole outhouse.
