A true made up tale of the west...

[Trinity]

With a loud crash, Trinity's jug smashes to pieces and the remaining contents soak his shirt as the bullet continues its path and lodges itself in the side of the house.  Unshaken, Trinity removes his shirt and wrings as much of the liquid into his mouth as he can.

Knowing his access to the Dismal will no longer be legally available, he packs up his still and supplies and heads for the hills where he finds a nice hinding spot with a natural spring.  In an hour, Trinity is already producing his recipe.

Laughing to myself when I realized Trinty still thinks he is a head of the game...Delmonico got the mineral rights, spring water is from under the ground :PHe'll have to deal with Delmonico for that mineral water

[Cherokee Jem]

Jem tells Trinity about a stream on his land. But he also says in exchange for legal water, he has to provide 1 jug a week for the reynolds homestead.

[Delmonico]

No soap, the water would still belong to lil rooster.   How ever he might trade some water fer a few jugs, heck fer a small fee I might even provide Trinity with some coal fer his still.

This might work.....for medicable pour-poses only

[Trinity]

"Com'on Shents, Ah'll pony up however mush y'all wan. *hic*"

[Cherokee Jem]

Jem takes out a flask and pours him a drink...

[litl rooster]

  still laughing at the a-neb-reated Trinty I kick the broken chards of the jug out of the way. There now Trinty I think a jug a year will do.(Being a tea Toadler)Let me unlock the the gate dam and get you back in business.

[Trinity]

Oh, thankee pard!  Ah shore do 'ppreciate that!  Tea?  Ah got me a good recipe fer tea, kin Ah fix you some?

[Cherokee Jem]

Jem grins, trying to imagine trinity drinking tea... Can you make mine with no alcohol?

[Trinity]

"Huh???"

[Cherokee Jem]

 Jem arrives from the ranch,  bringing the supplies he needs to go hunting the next morning. He almost hopes some friends will arrive to help and be company while waiting for the game to appear...

[litl rooster]

Passing Jem on his way into camp, I notice he is packing lots of hunting supplies. I hope he brought ICE it's awful warm to be hanging meat this time of year. 

[Trinity]

"Whacha gonna hunt, pard?  Here.  I bought ya this to keep ya company!"  Trinity hands over a jug to Jem.

"It might 'ffect yer aim, so shoot plenty, mah pappy always used to say."

[Delmonico]

On the trail ahead of Trinity and Jem is Delmonico.      Takin' a hint from old "Looney Tunes" cartoons, Delmonico posts a sign that says "Elaphant Season Open."    With out noticing the misspelling, the two are off on an Elaphant hunt.

[Cherokee Jem]

Seen any elefunts trinity? Jem keeps his rifle close at hand.

[Prairie Pearl]

Off in the distance, Pearl caught sight of the hunting party through the spyglass.

[Zeb]

Zeb reins up and looks back at his companion.

"Whatcha lookin' at Darlin'?" Zeb asks Pearl.

[Prairie Pearl]

  "Ya mean besides yer butt?" 

[Zeb]

Zeb looks at Pearl and then says, "Now dang it Pearl, yer surposed ta be lookin' fer SABRE TOOTHED SQUIRRELS! Ya'll find in in tha trees hangin' upside down and hangin' by 'eir tails!"

He sees her looking through the glass and then back to the back of his saddle.
