It seems like our early education was so broadly spread that it excluded many interesting side notes. This is why we enjoy traveling so much. It allows us to enhance our knowledge of the world around us.

As a lifelong Midwesterner, we didn’t learn much about the South or West in school — 13 colonies, Abraham Lincoln, we won the Civil War, and that’s about it. It’s so interesting to me to think about what else was going on, and why it matters.

That is one of the biggest parts of why we enjoy traveling. Learning new and interesting information.

It’s interesting to learn that the remains were turned into the foundation.

This place had quite a varied history compared to many of the frontier forts we have visited in the United States.

We would definitely recommend a stop in Mobile. It has lots of history and a cool vibe.

As many times as I’ve been to Alabama, I have not yet been to Mobile. Sounds like a trip to Fort Conde would be a good first stop to get grounded in the history there.

I truly enjoy learning as much as I can about the history of the places we visit. It creates a stronger bond for me.
