Really great to see your videos of your trip. I live in Hastings, Nebraska where the Trail crosses highways 6&34 out west of town. You missed the story of the grave that the area people have kept up northwest of Kenesaw. A fellow's wife died, and didn't want to leave her in an unmarked grave. So he sent his children and belongings on with the train while he traveled clear up to Omaha to have a tombstone made, and returned to the grave site to set it at his wife's grave. A monument is out at the county blacktop, and the grave is a ways into private land to the east. So much history along the route that I hope is never lost. Thank you for your part in trying to keep it alive!
I’ve always been fascinated by the Oregon Trail. Also the subject leaves much room to expand into related subjects like the Santa Fe Trail, the California Trail, etc.
@@westwardgo4711 Interesting. When you posted this I was reminded of the Lewis and Clark expedition, not sure whether much of their route translated later into the Oregon Trail. But apparently the Spanish got wind of their expedition and sent a posse out to head them off. Don't know what if any impact that had. Looking forward to your next installment.
I love any thing about the Oregon Trail. Fascinating subject, I've read many library diaries about it.
Really good and interesting video.
Thanks!
