Well, alright! We’re on another hunt. Like husband like wife, Cherry seems to have taken control of Violet’s hunt to discover the identity of the anonymous activist. On a “significance” scale, this rates a little higher than an alien crash.
But how did they discover that kudzu vines had also been distributed throughout their village center? Cherry only learned about this a short while ago (in Trailverse Time). And Violet doesn’t seem like the kind of social creature that would deign to mix with the hoi poloi.
At least one thing I have been pleased about in this strip is Rivera’s more expansive view of Lost Forest and her aim to show it to us. Who knew the locals favored what appears to be a cross between old English and traditional German buildings? Perhaps it points to some “old world” origins of their ancestors.
Whatever kind of NextDoor or gossip page LoFo has, it would be full of the news in an hour. I’m OK that Jules didn’t waste a day with Cherry looking at her phone or talking to the town yenta.

Funny you mentioned NextDoor, Downpuppy! At first, I thought the package she was holding up in panel 1 was her phone and I had originally written that she must be looking at NexDoor. Then I realized she was just looking at her bagged kudzu.

Yep. I had to look at the blown up version to realize that the small rigid object in P1 was the same as the big dangly one in P2.

The buildings, placed right next to the roadway, are typical for pre-1900s design.
