• Bonnie MacFarlane mission: "Obstacles in Our Path"

Mission Objectives

To complete this mission, the player must:

• Drive Bonnie to Armadillo in her wagon.
• Buy medicine at the Doctor's Office.

Mission Details

It is not hard to figure this one out. Take the position of driver on the wagon and drive Bonnie to Armadillo, following the route on your map. Don't exhaust the horses, or you will be riding a lot slower than you would if didn't exhaust the horses. Staying on the road will make it a faster and smoother ride. When you get to Armadillo, Bonnie will give you money to purchase medicine from the doctor. After you buy the medicine, she will leave to go back to the ranch, saying that if you want an easy ride back, take a stage coach taxi. Alternatively you can make your own way back.
