Last summer I attended three outdoor historical dramas: "Horn in the West", Boone, NC; "Unto these Hills", Cherokee, NC; and "Liberty", Elizabethton, TN with three grandchildren ages 6 to 14.

Horn in the west is a summer outdoor theatre that tells the story of Danial Boone and this part of the Blue Ridge Mountains at the time of the revolution. Bring a picnick basket and eat in the part before the show. More
