      CHAPTER-1-SG-Y-1-S-1-D-1 (SUMMER)     


      It was early in the morning on the first day of summer in a place known as Evermore Falls on the northern coast of Maine and a sailing ship had stopped there the previous evening to let off some passengers.A young Russian couple decided to take a chance on settling there so they got off and headed for the land office to file for a land claim that last evening in the spring of 1635.This was a big chance for this young couple to start over and make a new and better life for their family and there was the hope that they'd be joined by other families over the coming years who were also looking for better lives.
    Twelve year old Eli Jankowsky had decided to risk everything with her twelve year old husband Ami to come over to North America as colonial settlers.They were wanting to start a new life for themselves and have a better future for any children they gave birth to after coming over.They were both witches and very poor though it would be hard to tell they were witches unless they told others what they were.
     The first thing they did after getting off the ship was start looking for the land claims office and get over there to file for their land claim.They'd have the remainder of that year and the next three years to become self-reliant with income from jobs or farming and to get a house built with a living area,washroom and a seperate bedroom.They would be expected to get a solid shelter built before the first winter arrived or end up having to crash on public lots.
    Eli and Ami were both hoping to raise themselves out of poverty and to create a better future for their kids and the generations to follow as their family grew and thrived in their new homeland.They would have to get a look at their new home in the morning.
     They got up and made the trip over to the Woodlands area where they'd been told their assigned land claim was located and finally got a look at it.They were impressed with their new lot though there was no house on it and that would need to be built before the first winter arrived because they'd be needing to have a solid shelter by then if they wanted to be able to survive that forst winter and be able to start working towards the future.
      Eli and Ami gathered up their sleeping bags and claimed the brooms they'd be using as their vehicles to get around.It was a great lot to start their family on when they were ready to start a family one day down the road.There were two strange visitors to their lot and the first to show up was the high school mascot to drop off a welcome kit for any future high school students.Eli picked up the high school welcome kit and packed it away for when the town finally got it's own campus added.
    There was a very strange looking device appearing on their lot and Eli had to check it out which made it go crazy and it spat out a very strange looking guy.She spoke to him and found out he was called Emit and had gotten stuck there and didn't even know where he was.She told him it was the Evermore Falls colony in colonial North America and that it was the first day of summer in the year of 1635.He mentioned his hometown was Evermore Falls,Maine and the his year was 2135.
    Emit asked if Eli could find and gather up five things he called power cells to hand over to hime so he could fix the time portal and get back home.She manged it quickly and got it packed away after it was deactivated.She decided to go out and try to find the library after that confusion that happened earlier to cause her a delay.Ami had gone out earlier and found the library though he couldn't stay long and went back to the pool to wait for Eli to find him which she did.
    She decided to not bother with trying to get to the library that night since it was already too late to go there and she needed to eat dinner and use the washroom before getting home.She did manage to study fishing skill on her smart phone for a while before dinner and before she would stop to use the washroom there.They did have enough time to get the washroom business done and to eat something for dinner before having to start heading for their own lot to get ready for bed.
    Eli and Ami both got back to their own lot by 9PM and still had to clean it up before going to bed.They both ended up needing toilets again after getting home and getting the cleaning up done.They were familiar with having to sleep under the stars from doing it back home in the warmer weather and growing up as gypsies who didn't have a steady home in a stable location.They felt that this was their chance to make some changes for their family in the future.
    Eli and Ami were both ready for bed and thought about how the nights would be the same though they'd have a tent fairly soon and eventually have a house built that would allow them to sleep indoors.It was already 9:30 in the evening before they were ready to get into their sleeping bags and get themselves to sleep for the night.They were feeling luck that it was summer at the time and that it was remaining warm enough and dry enough to sleep outside in their sleeping bags.
    They were fast alseep when a raccoon knocked over the trash bin and scattered the trash all over the place.They would have a mess to clean up in the morning when they got up.
