They came west to claim the toilets

I think we understand the Riddle of the Stynx (the porta-johns, not the people).

There were five brigades like this who walked, pushed, and hauled their way down the road.

I go my own way.
I think these are "Pioneer Days." I don't know if there's a religious significance, or if it's a festival just for fun. Maybe the LDS branch of our family tree could clue me in? Or anyone, really. Just speak up. All I can find is that it's a re-enactment of settling this area originally.

Annie is feeling very gross today. I'm really not much help, except I made her ORT and forced her to drink it. It doesn't help that it's hot and still today. Really, piney woods?  

I could have sworn I had something interesting to tell you. I guess I was overexcited by the mystery resolution. And, the drums.
