Yesterday, Sydney and I rode our bikes to the Old Fort, where there was a reenactment going on. Unfortunately, we were on a tight schedule, because Sydney had a soccer scrimmage at 3:00, and we left at about 2:30.
As soon as we got there, we watched the blacksmith making a tong for a fire, which is a really cool process. I found out that the metal is about 1,000 degrees when it turns orange. Pretty dangerous occupation, if you think about it!
We also saw soldiers marching and loading their guns, women working on looms, a wigwam, and lots of other interesting, historical activities.
We got back to Sydney's house with time to spare, and I hurried home to watch the Blackhawk's game.
In some cases, blooping is key to survival.
