One more stop... Berea, KY home of Daniel Boone

We had to get in at least one official educational stop on the way home from Florida. We stayed in Berea, Ky and then spent most of Sunday in Boonesborough, KY. Jacob has done a report for our Biography Fair on Daniel Boone last fall and was very EXCITED to actually see it first hand.

James with the town's blacksmith - he made him a turn key.
The Boone Family Memorial (and Jacob!)

We were glad they weren't roasting a wild animal here. Just behind this area was the town's jail - complete with a prisoner.


This guy was very interesting and had lots of cool tools to work his wood creations.
