Chapter 24 Summary

Inspired by the success of the Christmas festivities at Stagecoach Pass, Aven suggests that they offer lighter meal options and open a smoothie and coffee shop. She also thinks they should fill the empty storefronts with cowboy-themed retail stores, like a shop that sells cowboy hats, and one that offers Navajo jewelry. Her parents love Aven’s ideas, but counter that it would be hard to find vendors. Aven thinks they should attend a nearby art festival to find local artisans, then excitedly recommends that Stagecoach Pass have its own art festival to attract artists. Dad is impressed with Aven’s problem-solving ability. Her parents wonder how Aven’s mystery investigation is progressing and are somewhat curious when Aven mentions that Henry called her Aven Cavanaugh. Aven is thrilled to discover Dad may have the keys to the old desk in the shed.
