One thing we should remember is that Clare still has a letter from Natasha, not to be opened until evening on Saturday.

In other news, it's 3 AM in Snow Town with no word from anybody. I'm worried.

Oh, hey, guess what I noticed. Peg took out the Snow People in an hour and ten minutes. Time ran out as Peg approached the last Snow Person. That's not good. I can't believe we didn't notice that! Damn it!

I sent an email to Edward:

Quote:

Edward, are you there? I'm one of the "vigilantes from away", if you want to go by what the dishonest geezers at the Society say. The Snow People haven't been killed properly! Peg and her friends went to find Ruthie and the Upper Spiral last night, and I don't know if they're safe! If they've returned by the time you read this, disregard it, but if not, write back! Someone has to make sure they're all okay and I don't know who else to ask!

I've a mind to send our beloved Society a little warning message. I'm trying to figure out if turning directly to them would cause them to do something drastic against Peg out of desperation...

Enough of your cowardice, "Historical Society". Right now, certain citizens of Snow Town are risking their lives to save you all. What does your little cult do? Lie at every single turn, and go so far as to try to sacrifice poor Ruthie Randolph to your oh-so-benevolent demons. Just like you sacrificed her dear great aunt Louise before her, and another innocent Hoskins before her. The game is over. Don't even bother trying to stop us. Helping us would be in your best interest, assuming life other than your own actually matters to you. What will it be? If it's anything to do with "you don't know what you're dealing with", why don't you enlighten us? Why don't you tell us all about the Snow People and why you're too terrified to do anything but obey their monstrous demands while old women who were actually attacked by them still fight? We're listening.

Hm... Do I post this...?

Fred has drawn a picture on the slate. It's actually the spirals on a pinecone. I'm sure it's suppose to represent some sort of map to help Peg find her way out of the grove of pines. Just not sure how it works.

*eta Peg sent Clare a message:

I FOLLOWED THE PATH ALL THE WAY TO THE CENTER OF SPIRAL! I FOUND RUTHIE! SHE'S SHAKY AND COLD BUT STILL ALIVE!

Fred's latest message on the slate which verifies that the drawing is a pine cone having 2 opposing directional spirals

Just got an email from drunk Edward.
Quote:
Hiya Kira! Are you toasting to the return of Ruthie and Aunt Peg? Me too! Although the Snow People seem to be gone, I would like to push for everyone to continue to abide by certain parts of the the Snow People Decree. It wasn't all bad, right? Like imbibing! The imbibing is my favorite part of the Snow People. So, I will continue on in their memory but I am happy to say goodbye to the church bells! GOODBYE CHURCH BELLS ON THE HOUR! I'm sure I will jump a little when they ring them tomorrow morning. A little means a lot these days. Aunt Peg called me to say she loves me. Its nice to know. She is nice. We don't have much in common, but I do know she likes gin and tonic too. Maybe I will walk over there tonight and have a drink with her and Uncle Fred. I wonder what Charles Gulliffer thinks about Ruthie returning from the Spiral. He told Tom Haynes she was never coming back. Tom Haynes told Julie and Julie told me. Julie knows everything about everyone! She's a mind reader. Not really! Ha! Everyone tells her stuff and she tells me. I really hate to drink alone. I hope you have a good night, Kira. What are you doing? If you aren't doing anything you should come over to Aunt Peg's house. We could have a party!

E


Here is my reply

Quote:
I will DEFINITELY toast to the return of Ruthie and Peg!! A gin and tonic in their honor seems highly appropriate. I think I will jump a little when I hear church bells now too. A little has always meant a lot Edward, not just now, the little things are the most important part of life, if you don't enjoy the little things you might as well be dead! (I'm glad you and they aren't) I think you should go over to your aunts house to have a drink with her, I think she would like that. Pardon my saying so but Charles Gulliffer does not sound like the nicest of people, maybe it's the name eh? Julie seems like a nice lady though! She helped us out a few times, and she seems very fond of Peg which only makes me like her more. If I could make my way to snow town I would!! Unfortunately Maine is a little far from Los Angeles. I'll be sending lots of sunshine your way though. Maybe you could do like Ruthie did for the book club and have a virtual party!! That way all of us can celebrate with you guys that everyone is safe and the sinister snow people are gone! I'd like that. Enjoy your night Edward, I think everyone in Snow Town deserves a bit of a party tonight. Smile

Kira

One picture appears to be broken.

Edit with email from Edward, interesting thing bolded:

Quote:
Hiya Joshua! Wow! Really? You are at your wit's end? What is it like out there? Would you like a drink? You might need it our there at your wit's end. I know. I'm pouring you one. Sit down, Mr. Vigilante guy. First thing you need to know is Charles Gulliffer may be old but he's not a geezer. He is a country gentleman with a big spiral painted on his barn this morning. I wonder who painted it? Its very ugly. It doesn't go with the rest of the house. Oh wait! Aunt Peg and Ruthie Randolph are home so you don't want to have a cocktail with me. I will take that. Thank you!

E

Forwarding this to Peg...

NHT's letter is up. We are on our way to closure. There are still some unanswered questions (who was the Magician?) but maybe that will come out in time as there's still a little more work to be done.

[Update] Blog

It looks like Peg and friends have one more task to complete. Natasha's letter explains it all.

Peg's blog seems to be down. That's not very good for me catching up.

While I'm sitting around waiting for that to be fixed, "mea culpa" means "my mistake".
