Oldest Operating Gin in America

Located in Jackson, MS. And the guy with the spoon in his mouth has a jar of molasses. He dips the spoon into the molasses and drips it onto the belt. This engine runs the whole shebang. Those wheels are about 6 ft in diameter. A must see

Definitely neat, but I'd be sick of molasses after a while. :lol:
I don't believe in taking the bull by the horns. I took a goat by the horns once and that was enough excitement for me.
