Place: Mr. Oleson's farm; Niagara Falls, Ontario; and Buffalo, NY By: Knightie Nat Nancy is left at the Oleson farm as the rest of the Knighties mount up for their day of questing for the mysterious carved rock.

She returns with the van full; there's barely enough room left for the Knighties. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Knighties: The Game Is Afoot, Or Is It A Rock? (2a +2b/3 Date/Time: November 11, 2004 Place: On the highway to Mr. Olesons farm, somewhere around Niagara Falls By: Knightie Brooksie Knightie road trip! The Knightie crew arrives at the Oleson farm to return the trailor that the N&Npack left at the loft. Grateful for the (reasonably) safe return of his rig, Mr. Oleson agrees to loan all the ladies, sans Nancy, horses so they can look for a cliff with indian pictographs. Mr. Oleson's son, Anders, leads the Knightie crew into the woods, to a certain point, and then heads home, leaving them to fend for themselves. Left to fend for themselves in the wilds, the girls debate on heading back, or moving on and looking for the pictographs. With their trusty cellphones still working, they decide to go on. They can see a white cliff in the distance and ride towards it through the woods. After hours of riding they finally reach their destination, only to discover that the cliff is not white, it was just a play of light. After a look around, and a break for classic Knightie style angst, they realize they are out in the boonies, with who knows what, when Kat's dog begins to growl, bark, and finally bolt into the woods. They all mount up to look for him, when Kat's horse spooks and bolts too, so the Knightie cowgirls give chase. Finally, they catch Kat's horse, and find Kat's dog...by the smell. He's been skunked. Ewww. Add to that, now they are lost, and no cell service either. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
