An Old Coon Skinner Says
I know this old coon skinner who sold fur to Eddie Bower when Eddie
was alive.
Fortunately one time he took me across the USA to Mr. Bowers home
and I got to meet him! WOW is all I can still say, but back to the
old coon skinner, Lonnie a big tall 66″ Red Neck strong as a Loaded
Cole Train and kind as 6 week old Red Bone Puppy. My friend Lonnie
when I mentioned that I was making Vodka …Well the old boys ears
pricked up like a 100 Pound Doberman smellin fresh meat!..hehhe…The
poor old chap cannot
drive and barley see (he is 91years old), but he
made sure he was ready for me to pick him up at 5:00am when it was
time to run a 15gal batch of sugar wash out of my new valve reflux
still. I was kind nervous cuzz this is only the second time I ran
the new still (LOTS OF HELP FROM THIS SITE).
I had the valves closed, Lonnie kept feeling the column. He said he
never seen nothing so new fangled in this((IN His God Dam Life)
direct quote)) the old coon shiner says that you have to have a feel
for the dam thing Dago! You have to know by touch! You have to know
by smell! And Feel…I was thinking WTF…I was thinking to my self that
this old boy cut his teeth on moon shine, so all I could do is pay
attention. As the heads came off he asked for a new mason jar. I
told him that I wanted to save them to ad to the next batchLonnie
abruptly replied, I ant had no dam polish from home for 20 years son
and this is goin home with me! (I am 45 years old and going on 15
when Lonnie is around, Now thats LOVE!) I will try not to romance
the story too much more and get to the point but what love can be
shown just from a great hobby!
So the heads are off and we are in the middle of the run and the old
boy has his hand on the column every 20 to 30 sec. the still is
refluxing
