| On the 2nd Day We had a lot of sand to walk in, and one crazy hill to go down and straight back up. I going to describe it. we would go up and hill and head back down it when we got to the bottom the Hand cart would Stink in the sand 3 to 4 inch pull and push it out again Also on the 2nd Day they just wanted to youth to push and Pull the Hand Cart. We did help some time But they did do most of the work We walk 8 1/2 Miles that day |

| The Women We got spilt up from the Men So we had to work together and pull and push the Hand Cart |
 |
| The last stretch for the women to pull and push was to go up the Big Hill. 1st hand cart started to go up and got stuck. So all the Young women and Ma's Dropped the hand cart and started to run to help the 1st hand cart up the rest of the Hill. We had 5 Hand Carts to take up the Hill We all work together to get the rest of the hand carts up the hill It was great experience to see all the women work together to make it up the hill Men stood up at the top of the hill with there hand over there heart It was crazy to look over and to see the men shedding tear's Bill said to me it was a humbling experience to Women work so hard and together to get the hand cart up the hill It was Not easy to watch and not able to Help |
