Paul Bunyan's Tall Tale
Paul Bunyan
The Giant Lumberjack
Sourdough Sam, The Cook
Sourdough Sam can really make a good bowl of soup! Sourdough Sam, the cook, fed Paul's logging crews. He made everything except coffee from sourdough. He lost one leg and one arm when a sourdough barrel blew up.
A load of pork and beans with the ox team pulling it went through the ice on a nearby lake. Sam had large fires built along the shore and boiled the lake making bean soup. All winter he fed the men bean soup with an ox-tail flavor.
