ELIZABETHTON âNearly 150 living history re-enactors will gather next weekend and add a bit more history to the grounds at Sycamore Shoals State Historic Park.
Thatâs because the re-enactors portraying frontiersmen, Cherokee warriors, and British officials will converge at the recreated Fort Watauga at Sycamore Shoals for the parkâs first re-enactment event since it was virtually shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The 26th Siege of Fort Watauga on May 15 and 16 will relive the days when the first frontier was the land beyond the Blue Ridge.
The siege recreates one of the many memorable events that took place at Fort Watauga and Sycamore Shoals during the last quarter of the 18th century. The siege tells the story of a Cherokee attack that took place on settlements along the Nolichucky, Watauga, Doe and Holston rivers during the summer of 1776.

Growing up, after a hearty dinner, my mom would always serve freshly baked pound cake on her blue and white china. The cake was served with a heaping pillowy dollop of sweetened whipped cream and a pile of macerated strawberries. I never had a chance not to love them.

With all of us cooking more at home these days, I’ve been making a lot of one-pot meals, like citrus chicken with Jasmine rice and shrimp scampi. They’re great for feeding the family, but also offer easy clean up, which are two qualities I love in any dish.
