Some of the things that I did to have fun and relax were playing games like tag. It is really fun to be able to play games and rest for a few days because we have been going almost non-stop since we left for the Oregon trail. Swimming is also another really fun thing to do because it feels good to cool down sometimes. I really love the food we have been having lately too because it's fresh fruit and rabbit stew that all the men hunted. We have to do a lot of chores that are very tiring but I know that they are important to do because we depend on them done for our own survival. The last thing that's really important to do is keep the animals well rested and make sure they are ready to keep moving on when we start moving again, because if they are tired, then we will have to stop again and that will waste time. There should be someone tending to them at all times making sure they have the energy they need to push forward. I will be very sad when we leave though because this is the most fun thing I have got to do this whole experience. Singing, dancing, playing games, telling stories, It's all something that we won't be able to do for awhile until our next stop so I'm just enjoying it while we have it right now. We have to be careful not to eat all of our food too, we have to make sure we will last until the next hunt or the next fort that we come across which shouldn't be that far away. Well, that's all for now, I'll keep you dated with the things we're doing,
