This month we highlight Laura Ingalls Wilder's 1894 journal when she, Almanzo, and Rose moved by covered wagon from burned-out South Dakota to the "Land of the Big Red Apple" in southwest Missouri. The little journal she kept was published just a few short years after she died in 1957 and is a fascinating account of sorrow and loss, hope and determination to rise above hard circumstances. Here is her observant eye along the trail: "We watered the teams at a public well with windmill, by the side of the road. The water is good all through McCook County [SD]. Wells are 120 feet deep on the average and nearly every well has a windmill.  This is a good county." ~ Laura Ingalls Wilder, On the Way Home; the Diary of a trip from South Dakota to Mansfield, Missouri, in 1894, July 20 entry. Harper & Row, 1962.
