Will is in the main bar, with beer, attempting to work out how to operate the television.

Well, he's plugged it in, and he's got the remote, but he could probably do with turning it on at the switch.

The bar is interesting; but Will is missing being able to go home somewhat.

So tonight, he's worked out how to use one of those new fangled record decks to get some proper danging music going.

Now all he needs is someone to dance with, and this mini box social will be in business!

Any takers?

He's now at a table trying to mould it into shape with some ketchup he found, though he's not sure why.

Or maybe there are...

Will got a message from Bar that informed him that apparently he's supposed to be bartending tonight.

Hmmm... well he's never done it before, but he's drank in a lot of bars, so it can't be that hard.

He picks up the chalk and debates the specials board for a moment, then writes simply under the title:

Specials

Beer!
Milk!Then he looks around, ( Read more... )

The Fourth of a July is a complex holiday when you're out on the frontier and the scars of the Civil War are new. William got into a brief scuffle with another boy about his father and the War while his mother entered a contest with one of her pies. Mark didn't cough as much but they all were thinking about leaving soon ( Read more... )

Outside there is the sound of singing.

'The farmer should be sociable with the cowboy
If he rides by an' ask fer food an' water
Don't treat 'im like a louse
Make 'im welcome in your house
But be sure that you locked up yo' wife an' daughters'And then there's the sound of fighting. And then Will Parker comes flying through the door into the bar ( Read more... )
