Fort Kearny

We went to Fort Kearny ... let me tell you, it was hot to be walking around outside!

Three different saddle styles - first, the McClellan split-tree cavalry saddle

A Pony Express saddle with the mochilla with the locking mail pouches (they took that off one horse and slung it onto the next, already saddled one waiting for them)

And an Indian one

A covered wagon

The reconstructed stockade (most of Ft Kearny was dismantled when it was closed)

A sod blacksmith's building

The sod roof

An uncovered wagon

These stakes mark out the site of one of the fort's original buildings
