==QUESTS:==
===QUEST: A Floating Idea===
{|	Carson:	The east coast papers're all abuzz 'bout this big park they're buildin' in the center of New York City.
They say it's gonna have a pond 'specially made for model boats! I wonder if I can make somethin' like that for Norma!
	
{|

{|	
{|	☐	Clean off the debris.

{|	Carson:	This pond'll be a perfect way to spend some time with lil Norma Jean! I mean, what's not to like 'bout toy boats?
'N who knows, Miss Ruby might want to spend a little time here as well! Wouldn't that make a pretty picture?
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“Once up-pond a time...”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: Border-ly Conduct===
{|	Carson:	Naturally, we 're gonna have to make some sort of border berm or else the water'll end up spreadin' out all over!
The canyon should have all the water-tight rocks we need to make our lake bed.

{|	
{|	☐	Gather the stone border.

I reckon' she'll have a better time sailin' boats on it if she had herself a hand in puttin' it together!
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“He's right: more participation means more anticipation!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: All A-Border!===
{|	Norma Jean:	Didja hear? Mr. Carson 'n me is gonna build us a lil lake 'n sail toy boats 'round on it!
I don't think I ever seen a lake before. I think it's jes' like the big river 'cept the water don't move none!
	
{|	
{|	☐	Upgrade the sailboat pond.
Tap the Sailboat Pond to Upgrade.
{|	Norma Jean:	There, all laid out in a big circle! That should give the boats room to move without crashin' into each other!
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“Setting up the perimeter is a border-line case!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: Limpid Liquid===
{|	Carson:	When it comes time to fill our pond with water, it'll be jim-dandy if we can use the clearest water we can.
Otherwise, it'll look like our model boats are sailin' 'round in a big mud puddle, 'n we can't abide by that!
	
{|	
{|	☐	Explore the Canyon for the rain water.
Tap the Canyon to Explore.
	
{|	
{|	☐	Gather the rain water.

{|	Carson:	Well my oh my, that water is crystal clear! I better make sure Norma doesn't drink it all before it gets in our pond.
Then again, it's a hot day, 'n we got plenty to spare. Why not use a little to wet our whistles?
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“The thirsty friend who gets water is the dearly de-parched.”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: What Water!===
{|	Norma Jean:	Gosh, it sure is hot waitin' round fer Mr. Carson to get back with that water.
If he don't get here soon, I'm a-gonna dry up 'n blow away in the wind!
	
{|	
{|	☐	Upgrade the sailboat pond.
Tap the Sailboat Pond to Upgrade.
{|	Norma Jean:	That water sure looks sparkly when the sun glints off it. It looks just like diamonds! ('N it tastes good too!)
Mr. Carson was joshin' me 'bout not drinkin' it all, like I could drink a whole lake of water all by myself!
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“That kind of thirst would make you burst!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: Bench Intentions===
{|	Carson:	I figure that standin' around in the sun watchin' the boats go back 'n forth is bound to get one all tuckered out.
What we're gonna need is a bench where folks can sit for a spell 'n watch the boats do their floatin'.
	
{|	
{|	☐	Search the Old Mine for the side bench.

{|	
{|	☐	Gather the side bench.
Tap the Side Bench to Collect.
{|	Carson:	This one's pefect; more than big enough for me and Norma Jean, 'n room enough for Miss Ruby if she'd care to join us!
I'm afraid it's a mite ungainly for lil Norma to handle by herself. I'll see if ole Gus can help get it placed.
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“It'll certainly provide the best rest in the West!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: A Real Bench Mensch===
{|	Gus:	Aw, ain't that purty? Carson 'n lil Norma Jean've done scratched out a lil ole tarn here 'n these hills!
'N lookee there at that water! The way the sun's shinin' off it like that makes it look jes' like diamonds!
	
{|	
{|	☐	Upgrade the sailboat pond.
Tap the Sailboat Pond to Upgrade.
{|	Gus:	I can 'magine myself comin' back here for a siesta or two down the road.
In fact, I might even bring up my rod'n'reel and do a little fishin', even though I know there ain't no fish in it!
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“Like the low-level fisherman who's angling for a promotion!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: About a Boat===
{|	Norma Jean:	Mr. Carson gave me the bast job of all! I get to go find our little boat!
I hope it's white, 'n has lots of sails, 'n I want the sails to be blue, 'n I want a whole bunch of fancy strings on it!

Tap the Old Mine to Explore.
	
{|	
{|	☐	Gather the toy boat.

{|	Norma Jean:	Well, it ain't like the the big ships I seen in books. It only got one sail, but it least it's blue.
'N bestest 'n most important of all, it looks like it'll float! I'll show it to Mah 'n see what she thinks!
QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
“Show it to her only if it's see-worthy!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: Toy Boat Tryout===
{|	Ruby Mae:	Why isn't that the most darling toy boat you've ever seen? I might even clean it up a bit for its maiden voyage!
It might be wise to test it out a little first. If it's got any leaks, it's better to know sooner rather than later!
	
{|	
{|	☐	Upgrade the sailboat pond.
Tap the Sailboat Pond to Upgrade.
{|	Ruby Mae:	It's got a couple of tiny leaks, but a dash of hasty paste should plug 'em right up.
We should turn the launch into an event! I'll surprise Mr. Carson with some sandwiches and refreshments!

“Because the last thing they want is a sinking sensation!”	
REWARD : 100 : 25 	
===QUEST: A Pond to be Fond Of===
{|	Carson:	Yep, it sure looks like a fine day for sailboatin'! Norma 'n I've agreed to meet 'n, as they say, take the boat out.
I asked Norma if her Momma wanted to join us 'n she just sorta snickered. I think that girl is keepin' secrets!
	
{|	
{|	☐	Harvest the sailboat pond!
Tap the Sailboat Pond to Harvest. (1x)
{|	Carson:	Well doggone it, we ended up havin' ourselves a regular ol' party like they have at those 'yacht clubs!'

QUEST COMPLETE! 	QUEST COMPLETE!
