It was so hot but we had a great time at the fort. Anthony wanted to go to the Library TAB meeting so he stayed home. We watched a lady make fire, she even let the boys try to make a spark. We saw a lady making cloth, a tin smith, a blacksmith and a gunsmith. The gunsmith was very impressed with the boys because they knew what riffling is and what it does. I spent a long time talking to the lady who makes Lye soap....I feel a project coming on :)

Looks like fun. We've never done Ft. Boonesborough or Halls (or maybe FB is where you took my big kids once?). Don't you just love last minute adventures in your own backyard?
Jeannie,
Fort Harrod is where I took Reeves and Embree. This place is a little closer, but not quite as big. Maybe a trip there when you get home ?
