Maybe my Grandparents. Probably not but my Great Grandparents came from Denmark. From what I remember
they bought 80 acres in Wisconsin for 25 cents per acre.
My Grandfather would only go in the outhouse as he didn't believe such things should be done inside a home.
I was potty trained on that farm by watching their collie dog relieve himself by going on the tire of the Model A.
So I followed the Collie.

Those farms have largely been lost to corporate farming.
