I raced pigeons for a number of years. It was a great hobby. My wife grew up in a small town in Wyoming where a lot of boot legging took place, There were small frame houses that were quite close together and she remembered going into the cellars and seeing bottlegging equipment. Often there were tunnels from one cellar to a another. My MIL remembered when the revenewers came and smashed the barrels . Liquor was running down the street.
