Today the actual conference sessions were only in the morning followed up a spelling bee at lunch time and then everyone headed out. Some people headed home, others went to see the Betsy-Tacy houses which featured special events for the day, but I followed another part of the group and headed to Walnut Grove, Minnesota for a tour and then to the pageant for the night.

Laurapalooza Trip – Sleepy Eye, Minnesota
Well known to TV fans. Sleepy Eye is right on Highway 14 – The Laura Ingalls Wilder Historic Highway between Mankato and Walnut Grove. The video should also prove of interest to people who collect Sleepy Eye pottery and Peanuts fans. I took a quick look around Sleepy Eye on my way to Walnut Grove.
