Pardon me, I hope this is working. I am Dolores. I arrived a few days ago and have already made my introductions to some of the folks here.

I do not know why there are suddenly so many birds, and I know everyone is worried about the sandstorms and the children going missing. It's such a shame. My parents and my cows are missing too. But I was told my home is in a different time and place and that I cannot return, so I must make do.

Unfortunately I was informed that the savings I have mean very little in the current market, and purchasing new cattle would not be so easy. But a nice lady told me that making pies was an option, so I have made a few dozen. Oddly enough, all the cans in my pantry were empty, so I had to buy what I could from the grocery.

All I have is apple. I am not sure what a fair price to ask for them are. But every penny helps. Thank you.

If that's no trouble, Ms. Hooch.

The weather isn't too unlike here. But there are canyons and mountains all around, as far as you could possibly see. The town is much smaller, although sometimes quite rowdy with the arrival of the newcomers. But we have a train station, and a saloon if cards and drinking is the sort of thing you like to partake in. There's a few other towns nearby, including one buried deep beneath the sands. Only the steeple of the church is visible. But I don't dare go that far. I spend most of my time out in the hills, painting the natural splendor of the landscapes. I wish I could show you, it's quite beautiful.

	It's not Ms. I think there's some landscapes like that here, some hours to the west. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh! My apologies. Mrs? Madam? I would like to see it. I haven't painted a thing since I've arrived. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	More for lack of inspiration or lack of resources? Let's go with Mx. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Time so far, just trying to get everything else settled. The pies, being shown around town. I haven't had much chance to get away quite yet. I have not heard that one before. Is it new? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah that makes sense. It's a little easier when they pull us into small worlds or there are people from home to sort it out. Yeah, I guess? It's somewhere between male and female. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you have people from your home here with you? I see. My mistake for assuming anything. I've met all sorts of different people already. I think it's more than just my clothing that's a bit outdated. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't think it's anything entirely new. Just, something people are more free to talk about now. Sort of. But they're all from 50 years in the future. So I understand the having to adapt. When are you from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think that’s what we all have been seeking. To be free. A chance to live our lives as who we want, everyone deserves that. That’s why so many newcomers came out west. 1873. Everyone I knew must be long gone by now. (Reply to this) (Parent)
