Today we stopped at alcove spring. I was very glad we did because traveling is very exhausting and not fun I would rather stop forever and play games such as leapfrog, cats cradle, tag, Simon says, and blind mans bluff. I liked to play blind mans bluff and this is how you play: One person is blindfolded and other players form a circle around him/her. The blindfolded person is turned around a three times then let go to catch one of the players and if you catch them they are it. There are different ways to play the game. One way is that the blindfolded player has to guess who they have caught and if they do not guess right they are still it and not the person they caught. 
     We also went swimming it was so fun in 1849 but in 2150 it was more fun because of the diving boards and the slides we didn't have any of those here.
 

We are bringing a lot of stuff such as food, tools, weapons, cooking utensils, 12 Oxes, And 6 wagons. One thing I think is going to be hard it to eat the food that we have and the people say there will be no more good food once we are on the trail and it will also be hard because the food at home in 2150 was so good like the blazing wings from buffalo wild wild wings. I think it will be cool to learn how to use all the tools that we are bringing on the trip with us. Luckily I'm not a woman because if I was a woman I would have to wash everyone's cloths and that would get so boring after about a week and were one the trail way more than a week. Overall I am kind of scared to go on the trip.

We are going on the Oregon trail so we can get good soil and get away from the rocky soil here. We are also moving there for better jobs because some of us don't have jobs and some of us have bad jobs that we want to quit and go get a new job.
