On Saturday, Jay and I took a trip to Fort Snelling. It's been on my summer bucket list for a couple of years, and I'm glad we finally made it happen! There was so much to learn! 

If they did teach us about Fort Snelling in school, I slept through it. There were certain things that I remembered about history in general, but it was fun to dig a little deeper into the every day lives of the people who lived there.

If you're planning a trip yourself, here's some info that might be helpful!
