    Eleven year old Eli Jankowsky arrived in Deery Meadows on the last day of spring in 1620 with her eleven year old husband Ami in the evening hours.Their arrival came too late in the day to head out to the land allotted to them at the town hall so they would spend their first night in the new colonial home at the city hall.They were going to be making the very long hike out to their land in the morning since it was way out at the edge of the town limits.
   They ended up getting up very early in the morning and starting the long walk out to their farming lot out at the edge of town.They both managed to make it through the long walk out to their own land and found it was a very large lot without any house built though it did have a few things they'd need right away.They were already planning on building as they could afford to build so they would also be able to save some money up as they built their house instead of bankrupting themselves building and having to save the money back up.They knew they had three years to get a proper small house built.
    It was about 9AM when they finally got to their lot and found there were two brooms for getting around with two sleeping bags and two iPads along with two cheap laptop computers.They got their brooms claimed and got a computer and an iPad for each of them to use.The paper carrier arrived and dropped off the day's paper while a high school mascot arrived though they weren't going to be attending high school because they were nowhere near to being ready for anything like that.
    Ami was leaving when a strange beam of light came down onto their lot and left a strange looking device sitting there.He'd been starting out to head back to the town hall to do some studying if it didn't end up taking him too long to get there.He was also exploring their new hometown to get familiar with where everything was around town before they had any new neighbors arriving.Eli intended to join him before too long though she had no idea how long she'd be delayed for.It was already getting close to noon and they still had to get to know the town.
   Eli started to check out the strange device to find out what it was and also what it was supposed to do.The high school mascot was leaving at that time which was fine because she didn't want to have a terrified mascot to deal with.Ami was already exploring the new home town at that point in time and had realized just how far the town hall library really was from their home.Eli found out the device started flashing with a strange light and a stranger tumbled out of the light in front of her.She had to start talking to him and find out if he might need help.
   Eli found out his name was Emit and he was a local from another time since he knew Garden House even though it wasn't the same as he remembered it because he'd always known it with a second storey.He also saw other buildings that didn't look like the versions he knew.He also noticed empty land where he'd always seen houses and some of the houses were abandoned.He also mentioned a school being closed down and having to be home-schooled because the nearest active school was too far from his home for him to be able to attend classes there.
    Emit ended up deciding to do some exploring around town while Eli searched for the power cells he needed to get the time portal fixed.It took him a while to find the city hall because it didn't look like it did in his own time and he had seen a painting of how it used to look in 1620.He also saw empty lots where he was used to there being houses even though some were empty and abandoned in his time.It looked like the roads were different than what he knew because they were all dirt and gravel roads while he was used to more paved roads.
   Emit had returned just as Eli had found the power cells he needed to fix the portal and return to his time.It was starting to get quite late in the day and Emit took a long time getting things fixed and returning home to his time.It wasn't too much longer before Eli got the time portal turned off and managed to get it packed away for later when they would want to use it.She had to start heading out to Garden House after that excitement and start studying gardening skill.They ended up finding out the day was almost done and they'd hardly done anything.
  Eli and Ami didn't get much studying done and would have to resume the studies the next day after having a good night's rest.They had to stop their studies and use the washrooms before they ate plates of salad for dinner.It was getting quite late and they were starting to get tired and wanted to get to bed for the night.It had turned out that they'd have to leave for the library quite early in the morning after a visit to Garden House to get ready for the day to take advatage of the chance to study there and learn the skill faster as they wanted to because they were behind.
    The jankowskys got back to their own lot at 8:30 in the evening and had to do some cleaning up before getting to sleep in their sleeping bags.It was already 9PM before they got to sleep for the night and it wasn't unlike how they'd lived in the summer before coming to be colonial settlers.
