The Oregon Trail

Jill's Journal: Ranking among the most memorable and worthwhile things we’ve done on our 14-month journey so far is this: the girls walking on the Oregon Trail. Literally, those are the wheel ruts left behind these 170 years later. Simply, completely amazing.

We have so much more to share about our day, but it will have to wait until tomorrow. Hiking four miles down and then up a mountain in 95 degree heat to get to the trail has wiped us out!
