Hi my name is ethan I am going west because I am going to the gold rush in in Califorina.

I am going on my wagon with my two broncos,I know journy will be long and hard but I also know I could become rich.

I first started leaving  my ranch in New york with lots of food,wepons,and clothes.

I went through many ghost towns and many and many miles of the Louisiana purchase.

I also came across many Native Americans and people biulding log cabins across open feilds.

I crossed the Mississippi river.

On one of the rivers I almost died because the current pulled me down to the bottom of the river.

soon I made it to Califorina gold rush and three months after i struck it rich and biult a log home down there and lived there for the rest of my life.
