The Donner Party (Survivor)

WOW! I never thought anything could come to actually eating someone! But it did! In the woods in the olden days, these people were trying to get somewhere but got stuck in the snow for so long that they ran out of food...or so you would think! They had food all around them in the form of each other! Mister Werther wrote a great book about one of the saddest times in our nation's history. There was a lot of historical reference. I hope I never have to go camping again. Some party...
