Chapter 5, Page 21 It's perfect!

Where we stayed on vacation.

Okay, it isn't quite what one might expect when they're told they'll be staying in a cabin. But it was still doggone cool! That strip down the middle there is a stream, by the way. It'll feature in a later sequence.

One of the tough things about this medium is that it can take weeks to portray events that occur during the course of one day. And this vacation lasts about four.

About time progression and comics:

Gasoline Alley might have a week or more of strips that all took place in a single day: but, unlike many comics, time went forward, year to year.

Each year, the characters were a little older. Relationships evolved, people aged.

That was quite a continuing story.

So is Mary Quite Contrary - IMO.
