Keep caulking and floating until we find something that's not a river.

I dragged my wagon down a mountain
the other day
And we just drove off,
sometime life's okay

I give my grandma a bit too much
of poison berries
Well she just slept it off
it was all okay

And we'll all float on okay

So let's caulk our wagons,
We'll all float on okay

I'm reading the OT LP on the archives, and it reminded that I misunderstood the original game for years. I'm sure that many of you remember that the choices in classic Oregano Tail were a banker from Boston, a carpenter from Ohio and a farmer from Illinois. I never beat the game with the farmer, but for years and years I thought that each character started from his own place of origin as a mechanic to balance the difficulty, since the wealthier characters were from farther away. It seemed logical, but of course everyone starts in Missouri and the farmer, as they are today, was totally hosed.

Good as new.
I live in Chubbuck, Idaho. Right along the border of Fort Hall Reservation and smushed up against Pocatello.

I don't know why I felt like sharing this. i guess the mention of Ft. Hall made me feel like it, unsolicited.

I can say that it sure is empty and dry and the Snake River sure is a river. It floods sometimes.

Caulking makes it to Rattlesnake Pass. We're actually past the Great Salt Lake by this point! Salt Lake City wasn't established until 1847, so the route we took is passing through totally empty territory.



We take some more game. Deer, bear, buffalo, and other large game have become scarce. We're mostly hitting rabbit and birds.



That name isn't hyperbole. And with our morale so low, we're on the verge of collapse.

Caulk and float. That’ll boost that morale!

See who is around. Maybe their wise words will boost our sagging morale. That or they might have some spare laudanum, that could help too...

Float our chalk.

Seeing who is around at a place called Rattlesnake Pass sounds like a bad idea.

We caulk and float across the river, but morale is at the breaking point. I let us rest for 5 days to get our bearings. We actually improve from Very Low to Low, so--



Oh. Well, that's that then.

Our journey has come to an end, unceremoniously and on a longer path than we would have taken had we stuck to the original route. We have faced many hardships, far more than the random number generator usually presents, and lost a loved one. If we are lucky we shall join Meaty Ore soon, as we have been abandoned in the wilderness to fend for ourselves.

I thank you all for joining us on this educational journey over the past few months. Perhaps one day we will return to the genre of travel games and learn more. For now, I wish you all luck on your own journeys. They will never be as perilous as this one.

I guess the 'eat every plant we come across' strategy didn't convince them of our competency to lead. :(

I think you guys actually threw away edible plants more often than poisonous ones!

Welp, that was an abrupt end to our great adventure. Guess we should backtrack a bit and found Salt Lake City early then, and steal all of the wagon trains' laudanum before we go.
