**Baker** : I guess Belle left the show early then, huh? 😉

BTW: May Fenno, or “Fehho” (we’re not sure of the spelling), was the name of my Grandmother, not sure how many Greats. We do know she was a full-blood member of the Flathead Nation.

Not really a problem. Belle could have seen the dancing horses in the parade prior to the big show.

Threw you guys a curve…see how you handle THAT! 😃

Ahhh…back in Anderson’s Gulch. 🙂

I think, since Tessie and the Charging Bear’s baby are only about six months apart, that they are inseparable. The Parkers live “close” to the Charging Bears, right? (By close, I mean a mile or two, what with the size of the ranch and all.)

And is Sally done with school?

Not quite yet. She should be going part-time now, like her boyfriend Danny.

Thanks, **Captain Amazing**! I’ve made continuity errors before, but not usually so early, or so big! 😃

Do you all know how worried I am about Belle now? Sheesh, it’s a\* story\*, I tell myself! Guess I can’t make fun of soap opera fan-atics now, can I?

Mr. Samuel Nichols may prove to be interesting. I have no plans one way or another for him, he’ll go with whatever flow anyone wishes to establish.

We’ve got lots of Sams! There’s Smilin’ Sam Anderson, rancher, Sam Hawkins, local newspaperman, and Sam Nichols, evil gay San Francisco sports editor.

😃 Which should prove to be fun if we ever get them all together!  
btw, Mr. Nichols may simply have gay friends, and yet be straight himself. We’ll just have to see what happens. As for being evil, again, he may well be. Or, he may be a man more sinned against than sinning. 😉  
(I almost named him Billy Zane.) :eek:

With my last post I figure it this was. Mose does have “talents” but he’s not infallible. Someone does need him, but who?

**Baker** , do you have any highlights and character impressions of the last two? Not a full recap. I read the stories but could still use some easily referenced help.

Pretty please?

That same kind of stuff happended in the FTSFS threads, too. What is it about a collaborative serious effort that brings that stuff out in some people? GROW UP!
