Talking to James -And questions to answer.
| We should move west because there are some amazing area's where we can farm and also there is very good weather. This will make it so that we can become rich and have a very good life in Oregon. Another reason we are moving west is because there is way to many people in the east and I am so sick of it that I need to move west so that a can purchase or get the free land there. Another reason I am going to move there is because I want to move around and go and see things not just live my life up to 30 and stay in the same place all my life. Like the mountain men do. Others around me are excited to head west because they can find gold in California.If you look below you will see a picture of gold. This though is not part of our plan because it didn't work out for everybody and we did not want to risk doing that. They also came for the rich and beautiful farmland in Oregon. So if you were wondering about my past I was from Missouri and I was very poor and I couldn't do anything so I wanted to test my luck and see if I can get land. Before I came to Missouri though I was from Spain and I was forced to come over here. Like I said it was a very hard life. But overall I am excited to start Oregon Trail because then I can become rich and finally have a good life farming in the rich soil. |
Notes
There were many mountain men in the time of our simulation. They showed us a picture of these people and they kind of looked like rough and tough people that are very strong and medium height. Mountain men would catch animals like beaver. They even would ride horses. They kind of remind me of bandits but they where not stealing stuff like real bandits in the olden days.
