some of yall may be aware of this link, but it seems like a great collection of diaries and journals on line.
most seem to be from the Oregon trail, Cali gold rush and all.
could prove to be a great resource for anyone searching along the Oregon trail, overland, and California gold rush stories!

was looking for more of a localized list, and if i found one like this for Texas, i would be in hog heaven!!
