And she’s gonna get ma-a-arried…
I’m in Ft. Worth, TX, this weekend for the wedding of one of my many nieces… And it’s quite the wedding.
Laura came to Bartlesville for a visit and she, as well as her mom and myself, loved watching Little House On The Prairie. One of the places that the Ingalls family lived in Kansas was about 45 or 50 miles from Bartlesville So I took Laura up there on one of the day trips we took while she was visiting with us. The above photo was taken in one of the school seats…
This photo was taken inside the log cabin… Not great shots, but you will have something to look back for a comparison when I update with wedding pictures. When we left and headed for home and were about a quarter of a mile from turning on the main highway to Bartlesville a school bus turned off the main road and stopped to deliver a child to home. We stopped and waited and a little girl jumped of the bus and was running up the drive and her dog came running down the drive to meet her, jumping with excitement and her momma waved to the bus driver.
It was one of those memories that sticks in your mind like a photograph. I know that it was a special moment for Laura and I was so glad that it happened just shortly after we had left the little house and the little school room on the prairie.
