Good morning, Whitewater
There are no public meetings scheduled for the city today; private life goes on unimpeded.
Our part of the world is far from military conflict, but it was not always so. The Wisconsin Historical Society reports that, in 1832, Fort Koshkonong was completed. About a month later, the U.S. Army abandoned the fort in pursuit, and victory, over Black Hawk.
The fort had another use, though: wood from the fort went to the construction of new homes in the area around (now-named) Fort Atkinson. It was our own version of swords into plowshares.
