Christmas at Laura's House

I just saw this from the Laura Ingalls Wilder Historic Home and Museum, and depending on the weather, I hope to be able to go....

"The "Laura Ingalls Wilder " Christmas tree is now on display at the Springfield Art Museum as part of the "Deck the Halls" program.
The tree will be moved back to the Laura Ingalls Wilder Historic Home and Museum in time for their holiday open house on Dec. 5, 5:30-800 PM."

Yes weather might play a big part in this, but I do hope you get to go. Sounds WONDERFUL! So glad they do this for the fans.

Cool

Sounds like fun. Hope you get to go.

I hope so as well! I'm only 30 miles from driveway to driveway.....but this time of year, weather plays a BIG part in where I get to go....I don't do ice and snow.....

That looks like so much fun!! I hope the weather cooperates, Rhonda, and that you'll be able to go!!

They made it even more tempting, by making it FREE!!! But the roads from my house to Laura's are crooked and winding, so if just the smallest bit of ice is on it, my truck is sure to find it. And lately, we have been on such a roller coaster of weather, I can't begin to plan things in advanced.

That doesn't sound good

great that they're doing that for us fans. and rhonda did you go?

No, I did not make it there. We were having a gloomy, rainy day, and it continued into the night. I wasn't sure what the roads were like, and was afraid if the temps took a nose dive, I would be out on slick icy roads.....Maybe next year....

Oh bummer Rhonda...sorry it didn't work out for this year!

Yeah, it was a bummer, but the weather has been so unpredictable this year, I didn't want to chance it. I just don't do snow and ice, so if there is even a hint of it in the forecast, I stay safely tucked in at home....

sorry to hear rhonda. but i'm glad you're alive.
