[The Moonshiner]

How to Jump to a conclusion.

No.
When I was a kid I'd go to my grandparents after church. My grandpa would hitch up his pony team and we'd go for an afternoon wagon ride.
Lots of noises but the chain rattle was annoying.
Now when I hear it that's what I think of.

Here/Sonora it's taquitos/rolled tacos if corn tortilla, flautas if flour. Flautas are usually a little larger too.

The ones that my family would buy frozen were called taquitos. Made with corn tortilla and beef. Mmm.

Oh. Well then I will drag you down to my house for fresh cinnamon rolls in a wagon.

Good to hear, never being around stock drawn wagons or equipment would never have given that a thought, traveling with family down South it was a frequent sight. Must have really made an impression on me.

The sound of the dichroic filters moving back into position in the enlarger head
The sound of the hall closet door opening or closing in my childhood home
The really shrill sound of spring peepers

I forgot the Peepers. With the forecast of rain through the next couple of weeks, temps in the mid to high 50s and the swamp being about 75 yrds away I suspect they'll be cranking up. Then we listen to the Carpenter Frogs all night nailing down that deck!

Too many to count. The smell of leather and the sweet smell of cattle takes me back to my grandparents' ranch and tack room; certain soap smells and I'm back in their house. The quality of light and a certain freshness in the air takes me back to hunting easter eggs. Those three are the ones that seem to pop up the most often for me.

The smell of the desert after a rain. It reminds me of camping out in the middle of nowhere and being free to roam.

Cow crap. Sounds funny but my family has a huge farm in PA and I practically grew up there. Helping with all the farm chores was a joy. The farm has been in the family for over 100 years and it's still going strong
