Bottle Cap Boy


Many of you know that Thomas has been fervently collecting bottle caps for about a year now.  It all started with the Duck Rabbit cap that my open-hearth cooking teacher, Kay Moss, gave him at the end of my class at John C. Campbell Folk School last spring.  Since then, he has amassed an impressive collection ranging from plain old Sam Adams to rare examples from the 1950's and 60's.  For a long time, Thomas's favorite cap was Bud Light Lime, but it has recently switched to a tie between a cap with an anchor on it (not sure the brand) and Green Man, a beer produced in Asheville with a woodsy, Celtic looking face on the cap. Hopefully he will remain happy with sorting and organizing his bottle caps rather than drinking all the beer in the bottles!
