The Donner Party became trapped in the Sierra Nevada mountains during the winter of 1846-1847. They were stranded near Donner Lake, which is located in present-day California. Heavy snowfall and difficult conditions prevented them from continuing their journey to California, leading to severe hardships and tragic outcomes for the group.
They tried to take a shorter route to California but instead it took longer and was more difficult and that was their downfall. As Virginia Reed who survived advised - "Don't take no shortcuts and hurry along as fast as you can."
The Donner Party took off from Independence, MO too late. Back then, you didn't have any good transpertation system like we do now. So they had to rely on wagons. They couldn't take off too early because the grass was needed the horse/mule/oxen to eat. They couldn't take off too late because they wouldn't be able to cross the Rockys because of the snow. So the timing was very important. The Donner Party took off too late so they got stuck on the Rockys.

On the day that you leave, leave a note for her saying happy birthday and how much you love her. The day before, throw her a mini party, bake a cake, buy a prezzie

Say the truth always. If the other party does not accept the truth leave it there. One day the other party will come to the recognition of the truth.
