Life On the Prairie - Maybe Not So Bad
~ by Jay
It's the day after Yom Kippur. I am eating leftover herring and following internet links while other people are contemplative or productive - but look what I found. Laura Ingalls may not have had indoor plumbing or electricity, but she married one good-looking guy.
Almanzo Wilder at 28, when he married Laura. Found on My Daugerreotype Boyfriend, where we also learn that Rutherford B. Hayes was hot stuff before he was President. Who knew?

Oh, how I loved Laura Ingalls Wilder when I was younger. I can't wait to read the series to O. Flaws and all, I'm enamored by the idea of "Going West."
