Pam is the former driver of the Pelican Town bus who lives with her daughter Penny in a trailer beside the river. When the bus broke down she lost her job, and she now spends her afternoons at JojaMart and every evening at the Stardrop Saloon. She is blunt and gruff on the surface, with a dry wit and a soft spot for those who stick by her. Repairing the bus through the Community Center puts her back in the driver's seat, and her route opens the way to Calico Desert. Her story deals honestly with her drinking, and a later Community Upgrade from Robin gives the family a real house and Pam a new start.
Lore
Pam is cynical and quick with a grumble. She reads the newspaper and decides it is a rotten world, then quotes her pappy's advice to keep a level head. She wishes she had been born rich, admits each day feels like the last, and says she would eat healthier if she could afford it. She also wishes a team of elves would come and tidy her house at night.
She knows she spends too much time at the Saloon, and Penny tells her so. She has hangovers some mornings and blames one too many caramel porters. At the Egg Festival she secretly spikes the punch. She wishes she had a hobby other than hanging around the Saloon, and half-jokes that she might play checkers against herself.
She is fiercely protective of Penny and warns the farmer to be nice to her daughter or leave her alone. Losing the bus job hit her hard. Once the bus is running again, she says she feels alive and back in the saddle.
Schedule
Before the bus is repaired, Pam lounges on the couch in her trailer until midday. She then walks to JojaMart for the afternoon and heads to the Stardrop Saloon at four, staying until midnight.
Once the bus service is restored, she leaves for the Bus Stop east of the farm each morning and stays there until five. She then heads to the Saloon for the evening as usual. She has her annual check-up at Harvey's Clinic in Spring. She spends both days of SquidFest on the Beach in Winter. On a Green Rain day she stays at the Saloon all day.
Relationships
Pam lives with her daughter Penny, who worries about her drinking. Gus is a good friend, and Pam is one of his most loyal customers at the Saloon. She is a regular at the bar every single evening.
Gifts
Pam loves Beer, Cactus Fruit, Glazed Yams, Mead, Pale Ale, Parsnip, Parsnip Soup and Piña Colada, along with every universal love. Parsnips are one of the cheapest loved gifts for a new farmer, since they grow quickly in Spring. A Keg makes Beer and Pale Ale, and the Saloon also sells Beer. Her reaction to a loved gift is "thanks a million, kid".
She likes every universal like, all fruit and all Milk, along with Daffodils. That makes fruit a good everyday gift for her.
She dislikes Quartz, Wild Horseradish and all eggs. She hates Holly, Octopus and Squid, along with the universal hates. Joja Cola is an exception she accepts without complaint. Her birthday falls in Spring, when gifts count eight times as much.
At the Movie Theater she likes every film. Her favourite snacks are Nachos and Stardrop Sorbet. She dislikes the healthier snacks, such as Apple Slices, Hummus Snack Pack, Kale Smoothie and Panzanella Salad.
These gifts are the ones this villager loves most.

Heart Events
At any friendship above zero, Pam may mail a small gift she found in a drawer, such as a Battery Pack, a Beer or an Energy Tonic.
At three hearts, she mails her pappy's recipe for Cheese Cauliflower. At seven hearts, she sends the recipe for Stuffing.
At nine hearts, the event needs the Community Upgrade from Robin's Carpenter's Shop, which turns the trailer into a proper house. A few days after it is finished, a visit to the new house finds Pam praying before a Sign of the Vessel statue. She admits that she loves the house but still has not cut back on drinking, and that she hoped the house would change everything. Telling her that it is good she feels hopeful keeps things warm. Telling her that Yoba is not real costs a huge amount of friendship, and she angrily orders the farmer out.
Notes
In Summer, Pam sends a letter asking for a Pale Ale in the Pam is Thirsty quest. Bringing one earns gold and a full heart of friendship. She may also post requests on the Help Wanted board outside Pierre's General Store.
After the nine-heart event, the Yoba statue stands in her house, and striking it with a tool collects it.
