Cub Club™ ‘Ventures™
If you’ve been on a ‘Venture in the past few months, send me a picture and a paragraph about where you’ve been and all the great things you did. Then, I’ll share them with all the other CubClub™ members in my next newsletter!

Here’s a ‘Venture™Note from one of my recent trips.
Fort Laramie National Historic Site

I’ve been to some really cool forts in my travels, but, I’ve never been to anything like Fort Laramie. First of all, it’s one of those wonderful “Off The Beaten Trail” National Park Sites. It seems like we drove forever before we got there. In fact, it’s in Wyoming and the fort is over an hour away from any other National Park site. We drove up to the fort from Rocky Mountain National Park and it took us a lot of hours to get there. But once we did, we learned about the fort and why it was there and being in the middle of nowhere made complete sense.
Remember reading in my book, Teddy’s Travels™, about all the people on ‘Ventures that left from St. Louis near the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial? Well, Fort Laramie was a major stopping point for many of those westward trails that left from the St. Louis area. In fact, LOTS of Trails went through this region. Some of them include: the Pony Express National Historic Trail, the California National Historic Trail, the Mormon Pioneer National Historic Trail and the Oregon National Historic Trail. What an exciting place this must have been during the days of Westward Expansion!

Isn’t this a great picture? While we were there, we got to see a real Civil War demonstration of what was involved in shooting off a cannon. It was really LOUD when it finally blasted. But it was such fun! Of course, when they shot cannons in the fort’s working days, it was to protect the fort from enemies and raiders. I’m so glad that those days are past. Now, we get to enjoy the beautiful landscape and learn about the ‘Ventures™ of travelers that settled the Wild West.




Now, don’t forget, I need your pictures and stories about your own ‘Ventures. Send me an email to mail    @tdbpress.com with a JPEG photo and a paragraph or two and we’ll do our best to include it in the next newsletter.  I can’t wait to se where you’ve been!
