"Where did you play as a child, mommy?" Henry asks, wanting to know whether his mother preferred being outside or in the house.
What a revelation it is to the boy, when his mom explains that she didn't grow up in this house, but has come from far away!
"How far?" Henry inquires, but Rose's reply doesn't mean anything to the boy.
To the plateau's rim, down the slope, across the valley, over the bridge and then through the meadow - this is how far one has walk to reach the O'Malley farm. It is a distance the little boy can grasp, because he can visualize it. And New Henford is at least twice that distance, because one cannot see it from here.
But everything beyond that scope blurs, to the point of becoming unreal.

🌄 Did you know? The Oregon Trail is more than just a computer game from our childhoods! This historic 2,170-mile route was the main pathway for American pioneers in the 19th century, stretching from the Missouri River all the way to Oregon. Thousands braved the treacherous journey in search of a better life in the Pacific Northwest. Wagons, dusty paths, and tales of resilience define this iconic trail, which played a pivotal role in shaping Oregon's history.

Wheat and the Tares
By the Reverend Tom Paine
Preached at the Tenino Park for Oregon Trails Days
July 23, 2023
Today, my family has discovered a historic truth – it is expensive to move your stuff cross country. Back in the 18th and early 19th century, people could pay shippers, and even get on a ship themselves, to come out west coast by boat. But it was too expensive for most families. And, even with modern…

Soft, apprehensive steps across the threshold...
"Home" Amadeus had called this place, but how would the powerful company truly react to the two reamining triplets, whom nobody here had ever heard of, and who claimed they were standing to inherit half of Stern Mining's stock?
Jason: "Welcome, Moonwood Trek 1850! I am Jason Graff, lead engineer of Stern Mining Inc. and something akin to this place's mayor. How was your journey? And where is my good friend Am... Miss Stern, I mean?"
Amadeus: "Uh... about that... You're the older one, Connor, you tell this man."
Connor: "I'm just a boy, same as you! That's the kind of thing we have a legal guardian for!"
Jason curiously looked at the boys. Never before had he seen twelve year olds wearing cowboy hats and mokkasins; not even kids who were really working on a cattle ranch dressed like that. Maybe they were Rupert the guide's sons?
Both boys: "Ga - viiiiiin!"
