Now for a Western!

Here we have a flighty young thing...

...with another of her kind, walking down the streets of a lil' ole' cow town, gossiping. What else?

Professional Con-men

"To hearken to gossip is...

...the road to destruction."

Destruction overtakes them: "Give me your purse."

Gentle Persuasion

"If you won't keep quiet, we'll keep you quiet!"

*pulls pistol out of purse*
"Sooo... you thought this would help, did ya?"

At the critical moment, one of the bandits' attention is diverted...

...and WHAM!

Whereupon the flighty young thing becomes a spunky young thing and proceeds to mash the villain's face.

A local rancher finishes the job much to everyone's satisfaction (excluding the bandit's of course).

And those two young ladies...? They lived vigilantly ever after.

Even though the bandits got what they deserved and those young ladies got off easy, the moral of the story is "Loose tongues are worse than wicked hands." ~ Jewish Proverb

Outlaws Mete Out the Law on Other Outlaws

Some of you may remember this guy? Well, he's still on the loose.

Three thieves reform, become justices of the peace, and, as penance for former sins, go hunt out the dreaded outlaw.

The Crisis

The Captive

The prison march...

...not without its tragedy.

(And you were thinking this was a comedy right?)

The outlaw charges his daughter with the family honor before...

...being locked behind bars.

His sentence: life, in the chicken coop.

The legend lives on.

The End.

And the moral of that story is "Children, obey you parents [only] in the Lord." :-)

Shooting shooting.

(A visit to the Raines just can't end without our trying out their camera.)
