Happy Black History Month! True story - I grew up in Huntington, WV, the same place where Carter G. Woodson - the father of Black History Month - spent some of his formative years. CGW was an academic and historian who sought to tell the stories of all Americans.

-The further east you start = longer trip
-Rivers are dangerous
Shallow Rivers (Less than 2 feet deep):
Ford
Moderate Depth (2-4 feet deep): Caulk
Deep Rivers (Over 4 feet deep): Ferry
-Don't waste money on food. Just buy bullets for hunting
