Rocinante Epilogue

The Epilogue for Rocinante is posted only on the Beyond the Far Horizon web site. This was discussed in the forum. Here is Wes's response from Nov. 18, 2008:

"Frankly, I slipped up when I sent it to BtfH but it wasn't important enough to worry about. The main reason I didn't post it was that it contained a couple of spoilers, and a couple things where the timeline wasn't as it worked out in later stories."

Location

Spearfish Lake

Characters

Jackie Archer

Mark Gravengood

Time period

1976 and 1992, 4 years and 20 years after the end of Rocinante.

Summary

Four years after the end of their adventure, Mark found and article in "Sky and Telescope" which told about John Dobson and the Dobsonian telescope.

Twenty years after their stay near Carlsbad Caverns and Misery Hole, described in Rocinante Part 2, Chapter 10, Mark found an old "National Geographic" article that told about the discovery of the secret of Misery Hole.

A short time later, Mark found an article in “Independent Telephone News” about Major E. J. Seasprunk, who was the young black boy they encountered after the tornado at Twillingate in Rocinante Part 2, Chapter 6. In the article he mentioned Mark and Jackie, and said that the airplane ride they gave him started him on the path to become a pilot.
