| In April, Kip, Michele and Ed visited historic Fort Dobbs, NC to watch the reenactment of a skirmish from the 1700s. |
| Fort Dobbs website |
| Fort Dobbs is located in Statesville, NC. |
| The armed combat techniques used by the English actors were surprisingly similar to the Army techniques Kip was taught prior to his deployment to the Middle East. |
| In addition to reenactment of the skirmish that took place at Fort Dobbs, there were also many people in period costumes demonstrating what life was like in North Carolina in the 18th Century. |
| Ed watches a demonstration of how the indians detained prisoners. |
| The Fort has a small gift shop and a charming nature trail. |
| The Fort is a nice place to visit and would be a great place for a class field trip. |
