Coonhounds and Cabin Fever

Thirty-five degrees in Miami, Florida?   Headlines read “Freezing in Florida:  Artic chill reaches Sunshine State, breaking records and causing power disruptions.”

Steve takes the opportunity to check on friends that are coping with the chilling effects of a Polar Vortex that is causing hunters across the country to stay by the fire. In many cases hunters are bringing in the hounds in order to cope with what has become one of the harshest winters in memory, even for octogenarian hunters like Pennsylvania’s Fred Moran, the Redbone Man who will be 89 when this podcast airs.

Steve checks in on Fred and finds him in the throes of a three-week layoff from coon hunting, something he normally does nightly.  Fred sounds a little rough but the dog talk begins to flow as the friends talk about the weather, old dogs, old trucks, old friends and stories, old and new, all framed in the hope that better days are coming.

This is an episode for those experiencing the effects of cabin fever on steroids the last few days.  We’re hoping the stories, the laughs and the optimism will help to cure the fever in your neck of the woods.
