THIS BOOK STARTED US ON OUR TREKIT WAS A WAY FOR US TO KEEP A MEMORY THROUGH JOURNAL WRITING. WE WERE REMINDED THAT THE SAINTS WHO TRAVELED ACROSS THE PLAINS TO GET TO THE GREAT SALT LAKE VALLEY KEPT VERY GOOD JOURNALS AND THAT IS HOW WE FOUND OUT SO MANY DETAILS ABOUT THE WILLIE AND MARTIN HANDCART COMPANIES JOURNEY. SO WE WERE ASKED TO KEEP A JOURNAL ON OUR JOURNEY THROUGH OUT THE TREK.
WE WERE ALL GIVEN A PERSON THAT TRAVELED IN THE WILLIE OR MARTIN COMPANY, WE WERE GIVEN SOME OF THEIR HISTORY AND IF THEY MADE IT TO THE SALT LAKE VALLEY OR DIED ALONG THE WAY.
SUSANNAH STONE WAS THE PERSON THAT I WALKED FOR. VERY NEAT LADY.
