Jim threw his hands up in defeat "A'ight ladies, suppose I'm out numbered, we'll see how this goes." He nodded to the sheriff "Thanks fer the tip, I'll be sure to watch my tongue. Now iff'n ya'll excuse me I should go water my horse and see a woman about a bath" He tipped his hat to all of them...
Jim nodded "No sir, wouldn't want to miss that. I'll be front and center" He finished his cigarette and snuffed it out under his boot "Ya'll got an inn? I've very recently come into some money and I'd like nothin more'n a hot bath and a thick bed"
Jim took a deep breath "All's I'm sayin' is this ain't no time fer playin' gunslinger. This is dangerous work we're considerin' here and I've not known any ladies to have the stomach for it. But so long's I'm not contantly keepin' ya from trouble I suppose we can give it a shot" He lit a...
Jim shrugged and picked up the billfold from the table, taking his $50. "Much obliged,sir" He put the money in his back pocket. "I ain't never considered bounty huntin' fore, but if it's like that I think I could figure it out. But, Sheriff," Jim dropped his voice low "Is this really the right...
Jim released the man and stepped back, wiping the sweat from his brow. He nodded to the sheriff "Weren't sure how long I'd be able to keep him held, thank ya". He looked behind the bar at Horace "Unfortunate, but I don't think we'll be needin that funny doctor this time"

He cocked an eye brow, not breaking his gaze. “Big Jim, but that’s reserved for my lady friends”. He sat on a stool “if yer gonna shoot me, then shoot me. If not, have a drink and watch yerself with the women folk”

“Darlin I’ve heard that name in every town Ive wandered into and if they ain’t talkin bout him, there’s a bounty poster on every board. Seems like a real bad man.”
Hey guys! Two things:
1. I will post here and there today but I won’t be as available as I was yesterday. It’s my wedding anniversary and even though we aren’t traveling like we planned I don’t want to be on my computer all day.
2. I’m totally fine to keep going but thinking maybe we should...
