It all started in 1848 and I started to go west and I got there by wagon.  I wasn’t so sure that I was going to  find gold of not and the Gold Rush hit and some lucky people found it. It was very difficult here it was not so difficult at my old home it was so  much easier because they wouldn’t run  out of stuff quickly .Then we started to get called the boomtown homestead and so it got worse and worse and you think people would stop coming especially  when stores ran out. I didn’t even get a single one because they sold out so much because they were more and more Landrushes then they started building log cabins and they started sending or getting mail from the pony express. Things were very very difficult here from my old home way different too. People love the Telegraph so much now because they like to talk to they friends and family members and their family. THAT IS WHY I MOVED WEST!!!!!!!!
