1) No indoor plumbing was noted.

2) The remains of a gas kitchen stove was present on the south end of the back porch. Also, the remains of an electric freezer was on the ground behind the back porch. These items probably date to the 50's or 60's.

3) The lodge does have minimal electrical wiring although it would have been installed post WWII. Long after Faulkner's last visit.

4) No existing outhouse was noted on the site.

5) No existing well/wellhouse was noted on the site.

6) I was unable to locate the traditional "dump". They often contain a literal treasure trove of ceramic/glass type items. I would loved to have found one of Faulkner's old whiskey bottles...now wouldn't that be something!!!

7) Note the red paint on the lodge. It's probably 40 to 50 years old or more and still in amazing condition (except on the southside of the structure where the hot Mississippi sunshine has literally burned it off of the wood siding) after all these years. No one makes paint like that anymore! Check the photos inside of the back porch and you can see that the porch was added after the lodge was painted. Compare the porch's condition to that of the paint!

8) Amazingly, 80% of the roof is still water tight, but it's just a matter of time before a severe storm damages it or rips off an area of tin. When the roof goes, the rest of the structure will rot down quickly and another of Mississippi's historical structures will bite the dust.
