Fort Laramie

The Girls learned a lot of history about Ft. Laramie

These are the old ruins that was there. Ft Laramie was built in the 1800's and housed many soldiers.
This used to be the bridge that everyone crossed. Somebody told me that this bridge was brought over on covered wagons from the east coast and put up here.
We were sopost to go to Mt. Rushmore, but due to that days events, we settled for going to see Ft. Laramie (it is closer to us than Mt. Rushmore).
We enjoyed looking and reading about the different events that happen there. It is a well preserved National Park.
