The original boyhood home of Almanzo Wilder, husband of Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the Little House on the Prairie books.
The original house still stands in Malone, NY.

Hillbilly,

I find that really interesting. Is it a residence now, or is it a museum of sorts?

It is a museum now.

The original house still stands, having been renovated to look like it did when the Wilder family lived there. The original barn burned years ago due to a lightning strike and the new barn was built as an exact copy.

There are many period-correct items there, tools, clothes, utensils, etc.
There are very few items that were actually owned by the Wilders.
They left the area in 1870 and moved west. They took everything they owned with them.
As the guide told us when we visited, "The Wilder family didn't know they were going to be famous. They left more than 60 years before 'Farmer Boy' was written."

Some random photos

This jet was way up there and was barely even noticeable to the eye.

Not a great photo, but I caught this small bear hanging out in the back yard about a month ago, it was only here for a minute or so before taking off. This was maybe 25 yards or so from my door.

I had this small four pointer hanging around about a month or so back.

My son on a hay ride at a local farm when we got his pumpkin, he would rather do this than go to any amusement park.

This doe was in the tall grass near my house overlooking the road.

Some of the 4th of July fireworks from earlier in the year.

A view of Lake George from the top of a hill.

These buildings were a block and two blocks from my great aunts homes.... in fact I'm standing inside the old mule barn taking these photos.... It's a medical complex now.

The reflective ghost image in the photo is not me!! ��
