Heck, wasn’t it just yesterday when our carriage finally touched down after several weeks of travel across rough mountains, plains, and deserts? Greenhorns we were, doin’ our darn best to survive in unknown territory, pining away for something greater than ourselves and the lives we left behind. Then when we finally stopped barkin’ at knots and got something of a settlement going, an unfamiliar creature, the kind that we thought only the crazy could go ‘n’ dream up, came at us! That’s right - those darned Bigfoots! Or Sasquatch, or Hairy Bandito, ya’ll know what I’m yappin’ about! The first sighting was frightful. We ain’t blamin’ Steel for running away, ain’t nobody expecting no giant man-ape to be lollygaggin’ about! We all thought it was horse feathers, but then there were more and more sightings.
