Hear all about our trip to De Smet, South Dakota for the De Smet Event 2017 in honor of Laura Ingalls Wilder's 150th birthday. Previous De Smet events focused exclusively on researchers and authors, but this time two TV show cast members, Dean Butler and Alison Argrim (Almanzo and Nellie respectively) headlined. The other focus was the on-going Pioneer Girl Project. William T. Anderson (Laura expert), Nancy Koupal (Pioneer Girl Project editor), and Judy Thompson (Cover illustrator).
