The Snow Fort and Other Forts



When we were kids we loved making snow forts! These kids took advantage of record breaking snows to create their masterpiece. I was inspired by their fort to bring you some other "Fort" info and bits.

Ft. Washington, New York City

Ft. Preble Portland, Maine

There are all kinds of forts. The New England coast is dotted with great examples.  These are just three I happened across pictures for  quickly. There are many Fort resources on line and every fort had a full contingent of soldiers each  with a story to tell. Be the voice of history and share a historical story.
