(Billy) Ma always regretted the cap
she made me out of that first coonhide.
:00:33
She said after that
I had raccoon on the brain.
:00:38
Lucky for me. it turns out
the price we were getting for those skins
:00:42
was turning what
I loved doing most in the world
:00:44
into a whole lot of money for the family.
:00:49
Meanwhile. me and my dogs
were getting known in those parts.
:00:52
on account of bringing in
the most skins to Grandpa's store.
:00:56
l tell you, l never seen
anything like it in my life.
:00:59
When that male redbone
grabbed that raccoon by the tail,
:01:01
he wasn't anywhere nears a tree.
:01:03
- ls that right?
- That's right.
:01:05
And last week, we sent
a bundle of furs like you wouldn't believe.
:01:08
lf they're as good as you say they are, you
ought to enter in that fall competition.
:01:11
Might have a chance to win,
and find out how good they really are.
:01:14
Oh, they're good. They're good.
:01:16
- There's the boy now.
- Hey, Billy. How you doing?
:01:18
Your grandpa's been
bragging up a storm about you, boy.
:01:22
lf you and your redbones
is half as good as he says,
:01:24
l got a pesky ringtail out there been
getting into my chickens, stealing eggs.
:01:28
- Could use your help one of these nights.
- Just tell me when.
:01:31
Anytime this week.
How's Thursday night?
:01:33

- All right. l gotta get going.
:01:36
