A Spinoff: No Swiney


I have been posting comments at this site: pioneergirl for quite awhile. Time to break out and make my own blog. My main research focus lately has been magazine articles written by Rose Wilder Lane. And the never ending reels of microfilm from the De Smet News.


What does the death of Goldie the Shetland pony have to do with Nellie Oleson? That is a tangent.


Why does every package of Tillamook dairy products make me think of Nellie Oleson? Another tangent.


Nellie Oleson is not my main tangent. But tangents pop up, like daisies, where you least expect them. And Little House(tm) research has creeping tendrils and thorns that poke you, but the bloom is quite nice, not unlike a rose.
