Cove Fort - Hinckley Family Home Stead
We needed to stop for a break in the long drive of the day
And Cove Fort popped up, so we decided to stop
We took the tour and saw how the Hinckley family build
this protective fort out in the middle of no where.
The kids were told what their jobs would be
Mikal would have to build the telegraph
Every 30 yards dig a hole and put a pole in then wire it up
the move another 30 yards, for miles and miles
Becki would learn to make soap, how to sew and cook and
take care of younger children
Sam would have had to clean out the "Dunnies" which he was
not excited about.
We also ran into Quentin Hansom and his Grandson, Paul as
they were serving at this mission for the next 4 months
We had a treat time and it helped us really appreciate the
"Conviences of home" we love living today!
