week four
week four ![]() It's June, 1842, and the trail ahead stretches as far as you can see. Your destination still seems like an even farther off dream with as slowly as the wagons go, but at least you have good company... Right? You're traveling through Nebraska this week, and it seems like it will be a bumpy ride. WEATHERThis week, suggested activities include Collecting Water, Hunting Bison and Praying. On Tuesday, there will also be a tornado. Good luck and safe travels! graveyard RNG selections are due at 5 PM on October 29th. |

[But really, Canute is glad for the help. He's not an ox wrangler. He'll take the blanket from Arthur - thanks broken peon - and daringly climbs out of the wagon to go attempt something useful with it.]
—Tie down what we need...
[If only they had kept the clock. It weighs a ton, nothing could move it...!!!
man this ox tent is going real well]
