California stinks without you, but I'm here to make our days brighter and richer. I miss all of you so much. I traveled Westward to start a new beginning, and to have a brand new start, more importantly i wanted to make money from the gold rush. Here with me in California, I am with The Marshall who found the California River, and also the wagon train. I am traveling with my dearest husband, that I met along the way. I am continuing my journey to travel Westward.
In 1848, the Marshall I found along the way finds the California River, when he found this I was watching him during the expedition. A while back we had just about 15,000 people here, you wouldn't believe it now, there is just about 100,000 people living here, the population grew!! Also here in California there are different groups, races, and personalities here... its so diverse.
I'm moving Westward for more opportunities, and freedom. The world mass migration is happening and i shall be the one to start moving. I witnessed a big Grizzly Bear attack Jed Smith, if you don't know from pictures how big they are picture it in person! I have noticed that the families here live or sell farms, which to me is dangerous and risky. People also going Westward are in danger, 20,000 american people will die going West. This is a good opportunity for me to have better life, more change then staying the same.
The places I have passed have been different, different trails, trees, farms, and all types of animals. I saw families travelling together keeping the children out of risk and safe. In May of 1846 a while back I saw men and children, riding on horses and walking to head for their new home. Every person walking, or travelling wanted warmth and some shelter. Me and Marshall have bonded greatly with being together travelling so far we did not fight as much as we both expected too.
My journey Westward has been a long journey, I mostly miss my family and friends at home. I wanted to travel here by myself, but when i see families together travelling, I wish you all were here to travel West as well. I have seen many different things that I have never seen before, the farm land here is extraordinary. I saw wagon trains and horses, and a grizzly bear. It was great here in California, it gave me a new beginning which is what I was aiming for.
