The End of the Oregon Trail

I made it to Oregon City! 

Anyone who was in school during the 1980's remembers the computer game The Oregon Trail where you travelled the trail fording rivers, hunting and fishing for food, getting cholera, scarlet fever, and dysentery! My students have played this game in my room for over 30 years and it was a thrill for me to visit Oregon City today the end of the trail. Kay and I spent almost four hours here today touring the museum and seeing all the places along the trail. We even got to see a class celebrating the end of school on a field trip.
