The People

And so we meet again in 3070!  What stories shall we tell today?  We've had the brief history and tour of our humble land.  Would you like to meet us?  Good, well then, come along.
At the entrance to 3070 sits the Man's Castle, so named by Man Robert the First who was known to say,  "A man's home is his castle."  We think he heard that somewhere else but we'll let that be.

Man's Castle was the home of Man Robert and his wife, the Lady called Eleanor.  They lived there for many years and received regular visits from their child-wren and grand-child-wren and great-grand-children.  Man Robert and the Lady called Eleanor had a son named Bob (Man Robert the Second) and a daughter named Patricia.  Lisa and Robbie are the child-wren of Bob, Sara (Dippity) and Amy are the daughters of Patricia.  Sara (Dippity) has sons named Jay and Mac.  Amy has Daisy, Lucy and Sassy who are her child-wren but who have four legs and are very furry, lack of wings not withstanding.  Lisa's sons are Jacob and Josh.  Robbie (who is actually Man Robert the Third,) is the father of Jonathon, Seth and Christian.
All of the child-wren, grand-child-wren and great-grand-child-wren, together with Man Robert and the Lady called Eleanor are called The Family of 3070.  You may call them The Family if you like, being that we are not so formal around here.  Of all The Family, Man Robert and Lady Eleanor have gone to sleep and their statues of remembering are there with the Great Grandparents in the slumber-tarry just around the bend.  The Family misses them but they are not really at the slumber-tarry; they are in the King's Great Meadow.  So The Family feels a little sad but mostly happy.
Sara Dippity lives in the Man's Castle now, with her husband Dean and a four legged man with much fur named Donny.  Mac, the younger son, lives here too.  Jay the Elder lives in his own castle not too far away.  He still visits many times a week and eats their food. 
3070 is as happy as ever with The Family still visiting often and Sara Dippity still sits on The Back Porch every morning with a cup of coffee.  She talk to the King as his shadow falls across the Wild-er-ness and she remembers being a little girl and is thankful and quiet in her heart.  She calls Man Robert the First and the Lady called Eleanor Grampa & Gramma.  She hopes they think she is doing a good job of caring for 3070.  When the King's shadow falls, she knows for sure that she is just exactly at home.
