Here's our version of the gold rush game.

It's fun making a game board. I got this map for free somewhere, I think at a restaurant. We had 2 routes, 1 across the main part of the country and one down through the isthmus of Panama, which wasn't actually on the map, but we improvised. It was funny, because my youngest wanted to put a space that said "go back 10 spaces" and we told him that was too many but he insisted. Guess who landed on that space 3 times!
