Forts Folle Avoine, a local fur trade re-enactment attration, hosts a “Christmas at the Fort” event each year. This year we were luck to catch it while Lea Ann, Nina and Sara Post were visiting. Grandma and Grandpa Jacobs also came over for a visit. The weather was beautiful except for the no snow part. That came a day later.
