I'm not sure about leaning against a tree. Hmmm..... knowing my luck it would be disastrous because that's just how it is with me. I can trip on a blade of grass I'm so clumsy. When my ex was deployed to Iraq he took one of those folding chairs you carry in a bag with him. He cut a hole in the seat so he would have a restful place to contemplate life in the middle of hell.  :thumbsup:

 

For a once-per-year thing, then yes it is a big expense.

 

As far as leaning against the tree... it's worked for me, and I do believe that I'm way older than you.  The key is to drop trough all the way down to your ankles.  The technique is best for dooky.  My wife, for "liquid relief" prefers the "crab" technique..

 

She just smacked me for posting her restroom techniques on a public forum.
