To this day one of my favorite vacations was to the Mississippi Headwaters. I would love to go back to Itasca State Park. But go on a weekday, because the weekends are crazy busy.

Sending the Oregon Trail to China


THE OREGON TRAIL
Seeking promised fertile land, many started out in western frontier towns such as Independence, Missouri. Facing droughts, floods, disease, looters, hostile Indians, dangerous animals, and dry mountainous terrains, many families saw their loved ones perish as they slowly traveled the Oregon Trail. The strain of traveling the trail shows in this unidentified family. Pioneers, many who walked the entire 2,000 miles, followed the rivers in hopes of reaching Oregon, California, or some place where they could claim their homestead and start a new life.
