I bet you guys were wondering how fun trek really was. Surprizingly it was way fun and spiritual. My family had 9 people in it mostly boys so it didn't need to pull the handcart very much because we did have 5 guys in my family. Our moto was "Knowing and Going the Distance" this fit our family very well because two men in our family invented and had the created the odometer. This was way cool. Our family's name was the Clans'n ,this was because that was the first letter of our lasts names. luckly i had an A at the begining of my name.
I trekked for Isabella Jane Bradshaw Astle. Her family made it to Salt Lake without any deaths. after that she became a very good seamstress. She was also very smart. she had i was pretty sure 7 children but i can remember.
When we went on the womens pull we made it up, just barely though. At the top all the men stood with their hats off and the could not help us at all. The hill was pretty steep , sandy ,and rocky. Every time we would get past one rock we were at another rock just like that. after the pull the Trek choir sang a song and i was in it.
Martin's I would have to say was the most spiritual thins i went on through out the trek. In Martin's cove i could really feel Isabella with me at all times. she helped me get through the day which was very long, or at least it felt really long. The spirit was very stong in Martin's cove, I hope you can all have the experience like i did.
