Grand Portage National Monument

This is very cool as it's a reenactment and reconstruction of
the fort and supply depot between the Ojibwe and fur traders.
 People dressed in period costume and
are very happy to share their knowledge.




 Lots of cool pelts for your stroking pleasure.
And some of them are soooo soft I can see why they were en vogue.


How cool - letters and documents.
Makes me swoon.
We arrived at the end of the day and things were starting
to close up but there were still enough
people to chat up and find interesting things.
