arrived yesterday here in fort smith, ar area and of course today we were off to visit another national site and to earn another badge..we were not sure what made this fort was important for but now we know...it was built to help keep peace on the Arkansas river....
it is also where the trail of tears ended..
there also was a judge that took control over the area ..he would sentence bad people to be hung but he never watched a hanging...we also was in charge of women's rights etc...
there was big jail and barracks at this fort...
we are in a severe t/storm watch for later tonight so we will keep track of the weather on the tv..we may also stay another night depending on what happens tonight...only time will tell...at the fort the ranger saw were we were from and asked us if we keep track of the weather ..of course we said yes...so he said that was a good idea...not sure if there is a tornado shelter where we are at right now ..
life is still good..
