This week we meet Baby Kane and his parents, Adam and Erin. Baby Kane is just about to escape from the back yard and crawl up onto the railroad tracks at the same moment the Union Pacific rolls west across the New Mexico desert. 

Will Baby Kane get splattered by the lead locomotive? If he manages to stay off the tracks, what about the venomous rattlesnake that’s just had its rattle severed by the fleeing caboose? Will that sidewinder nail Baby Kane if not the train? 

Mom and Dad are busy with their new biz, Land of Enchantment Adult Gifts and Novelties. They don’t know their boy’s in jeopardy. They don’t know what evils lurk.
