Little House Tour - Independence, Kansas

The last stop on our tour was Independence, Kansas, where the Ingall's Little House on the Prairie stood. Today, the museum complex is located on the land the Ingall's lived on.  The complex includes other historical buildings from the area too. This is the well that is believed to be dug by Pa and Mr. Scott.  It's very deep and sealed for protection.
