With my only four toes on my feet it has been a tragedy. I can't do anything. I have to sit in the wagon and it is so boring. Actually it is so much fun I just sit there all day long. I don’t have anyone to talk to. One day I think I saw something weird like a ghost or alien on the oregon trail. It was huge and green and it was holding 500 dollars. We have 144 that is so much I am a millionaire. I saw something and it was the nicest person ever having a calm situation with Mr.Smith. It was Mr.McCoy and he said that the hatfield family was really sick which I thought was super true because I haven't seen them in a long time. But Mr.Smith said he is not in charge in a nice way. Mr.McCoy said that they had a really high fever of almost 108 degrees and that the had a big stomach ache. He said that they had huge headaches that hurt like they thought their head would explode. He said that they threw up a little. I didn’t tell anyone because I thought that they would be to sad because of all of that. I thought I would get so sick because the wagon train ahead of us was sick because of typhoid at least I think. I already had infected blisters only four toes on my left foot. I am going to wash my hands every minute. Not eat raw veggies. Which is good because veggies are the worst thing ever in the whole wide world. Wait we can cook the veggies. Oh no great. I still have to eat the worst food ever. They say they help your eyesight. I don't like carrots but I don’t have anything wrong with my eyesight. I don’t even want to see the other wagon train because I don’t want to get their disease. So I will never ever go near them. But the best part is, is that we get to drink tea which is so good to make us feel better. I didn't know this but I heard in history that the hatfield and Mc.Coy family had a feud. That is way Mr.McCoy wanted to kill or leave behind the Hatfield family. | |

Today we arrived at Fort Kearney and we bartered some and made a deal where traded our oxen for the same amount of new good oxen for a price of $50. We sold just wolf skin and fur to a man for $15. Then we traded a gun and $15 for a new axle. We got $100 dollars because we donated a dollar to a man in need so he then gave us that for our kindness. Some things that are bad was that people had crushes so it was really awkward because they are always around. It was really hard to control the wagons because of all the hills and one fell off a cliff but then turned into a alien mother ship and took all the oxen and 9 other wagons turned into alien space crafts. I jumped on one and hid in the back and I saw that they turned into the picture below. They started smelling because they could sense something but they didn't find me. The 3 aliens in the ship where speaking some gibberish that I couldn't understand but then my mind some how understood what they wanted to do. There goal was to take every oxen in the world and the ride on the moon as fast as they can and also then eat them all. But then I took out my phone and showed them cookie clicker and they got addicted and then they decided that they would rather play cookie clicker then do there other plan. So they returned everything and gave use all the stuff they had and flew off into space to play cookie clicker for ever.
When we looked at Ashley's foot some of us screamed. Her left toe was all swollen and infected. We didn't have to amputate her whole foot, but we cut of her toe. She sat in the back of the wagon. She was so lucky that she didn't have to walk the whole day! For breakfast we had pancakes, bacon, and meat with gravy. Again. We have it everyday and it has been over a month. For lunch, we had leftovers. But for dinner, we were lucky. Some hunters went out and went pew-pew and shot a buffalo. Thunk. The buffalo died so we ate some of it. For the fires that we made, we couldn't find any fire wood. So we had to use buffalo chip. The kids had to walk around and find buffalo chip and pick it up. That was so stinky. We made a big mistake, we grilled the fish that we found over the fire. The fish tasted like Poop. While the buffalo were crossing the trail, Robert Gane went out to find a coyote or wolf. He found a wolf and it is worth about 1,600 dollars.
Today, we went to Alcove Springs and Muhammed and Luca were fling in the sky in the Sky. But we saw a giant pack of wagons in a line heading into what I think is Alcove Springs. But sadly for us Luca started pushing me and pushed me into the escape pod and ejected me right into the pack of the wagons. Valentine Hill was there and said "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Who are you?", "I'm ME" I said, and she disagreed into the air and she was never seen again. But I took the escape pod back to the ship and I started yelling at Luca and that was the worst he could of done and I sent him to the wagon train. Just incase I upgraded the security system so nobody could get in, and I just realized that somebody is knocking at my door. Actually I'm going to go get Morgan Freeman to hang out with, he's a good friend! I hope the person at my door didn't get hurt, but I got Luca back because he was still in the escape pod and I got the escape pod back because it wasn't that bad I have like a hundred of these planes, which are scattered all around the world. I have one in Japan, one in Spain
Today we had some problems. We went to Alcove Springs. We met a nice man who aid that his wagon had fallen over into the river and everyone handed him things. They handed him, 1 dollar, 3 watches made out of sticks, 1 book, and 1 coat. Our friend Sophia had not followed our rules and walked on her ''healing'' feet and they got infected! She might have to loose her feet! Wow that would hurt. She lost her feet. We met another man who lost an oxen and gave us 39 dollars for our oxen that we gave him. I was testing out things in the kitchen and made this gooey thing. I tried it and it was moist, white with a touch of orange, and it was so good. I wanted to call it goo for you but everyone called it cheese. So that was our name. Muhammed passed out from the cheese and tryed making his own with to much salt. Pedro also ate the cheese and passed out. Luca took them far away and brought them back two days later. The cheese was big hit in some countries called Wisconsin. We made a song called 5 4 3 2 1 6 7 8 9 1 3 2 4 6 7 5 2 3 1. I gave Luca 3 things of cheese and he said it was good.
Today we had to cross our first river, and it was the Kansas river. We crossed but some horrible things happened to us! Our plan was to drive the wagons across the river, but our first wagon's two axles broke! Now our wheels won't work! There was a man who offered for us to pay him, and then we would also have to pay him to take our wagons across the river. At least our wagons were fine when the man put them on a ferry to cross the river. It cost $100 but he wasn't very willing to negotiate. He was going to give us 50% of, and then we tried negotiating with him and he said that he would only give us 25% off! It was unbelievable! We carried the animals across the river, and someone dropped a pig and it went downstream! Now we only have 7 pigs! We have less food and now someone gets free bacon! At least we crossed the river safely, and everything else is okay. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!
Today we faced our first consequence, Ashley faced an infected blister, she first had a blister but then we popped it and she was walking on the road and it turned infected, we choice a plan of boil needle, pop blister, let it air out, and don't wear tight shoes. Our journey was tough because we suffered through very hard situations that were painful for her, if you don't choose the right decision, then Ashley would have consequences. We discussed our solutions to some problems like blisters, we discussed how our wagon can tip or problems like our materials sinking or problems that effect us in a negative way.
Today we faced our first problem along the Oregon Trail. Ashley, one of our members of the wagon trail, got huge disgusting blisters on her feet. At first we did not know what to do! Should we pop the blisters, should we use our water supply to wash it, should we treat it with iodine? There were lots of possibilities to face this gruesome problem. We decided that it would be really risky to waste some of our water on one person. If we helped Ashley, it would hurt everyone else. Our two options to solve this problem were:
In independence, Missouri, we met a creepy salesman. He asked us to take the gold and he took it. We ran down a hill and fell, we almost died, we stole the gold then he asked us for some lemonade. We said no an then he told us that the Conestoga wagon is 600 dollars. I then jumped onto a wagon and they asked me where the gold was because I just happened to be opening the bag of gold to notice that the gold was gone so I showed him the bag and that it was empty! So I said thanks for noticing, and the guy barely even said a word the whole time so he didn't really even do anything so I don't know why I said thanks, but I just wanted him to think that he helped someone so then I got the gold on the side of the road and because I had never ever ever for some reason counted the bag of gold I honestly don't even know if I left any behind or not so I just kept looking because it looked like some gold was missing in the bag even though I never looked in the bag to count it I still checked every once and a while. Just to see if any of the stinking gold was gone or not, but sure enough I think I got it so I traded in the 2 gold coins for a great big conestoga wagon for myself here, and I sure am happy about it.

In Independence, Missouri, we met the creepy salesman. I never trusted that guy. So I asked him if he wanted to come along. But Drhuv said the creepy salesman can't come. But the creepy salesman stole our oxen and our gold. So I stole it back but now I'm stuck on the California trail. The rest of them are looking for me. I hopped of but I tried to go back. I got lost. So I went on a random persons wagon and asked them why they were going. They said "GOLD RUSH, now get off our wagon or I'll take the gold. They took the gold. I met another fella named Sir. Rick Arley who told me we wants to be a farmer. I told him he's on the wrong trail. He said "Where's the gold." I said "How do you know about that?" He said " I'm Robert Gangue, and you disobeyed me. "How?" I said. "You forgot the soy sauce on the take-out!" he said. Then Muhammad jumped in and went on a super invisible plane that was actually invented in 1376. He took me on the ship with him back to the spaceship. Sir. Charles Xaiver was also on the ship. He panned gold and got lucky so he wanted to add gold to our collection. But Robert was on the ship. We couldn't kick him off so I just gave him some extra soy sauce which I convently had in my pocket. But Charles disobeyed me! He stole the real gold. But then Fransis Scott Key jumped up and took back the gold but he had a heart attack so he said "Save the farmland, don't let Charles take it first." he said. "Also don't let Muhammad take his jet." "Why?" I asked. "Because I..." Then he was cut off by Charles stealing the jet. When we got back I said we have a rivalry and we need to go, and fast.
Re-write history! Starting with events that ACTUALLY happened to us on the Oregon Trail, EXAGGERATE things to make a fictional story that's REALLY interesting to read!
