Aviator Laura Ingalls (not the author!), walks away from her plane at Floyd Bennett Field after beating the west-east transcontinental flight mark for woman fliers on September 12, 1935. Ingalls flew from Los Angeles in the official time of 13 hours, 34 minutes and 5 seconds, compared to Amelia Earhart's previous record of 17 Hours, seven minutes and 30 seconds.

 If I had a remembrance book, I would mark down how it was when we left our little house in the big woods to go west to Indian Territory. We had to go, Pa said, because so many people had come to live in the big woods, there wasn't enough game anymore for him to hunt and he feared we might go hungry. Ma said we might never again see Grandma and Grandpa, or Aunt Docia and Aunt Ruby and Uncle George. Though it made me sad, I still thought it a fine thing to go where there had never been a road before. We'd go where the land was more bountiful, he said, and he sold our house and land and cow, and packed whatever would fit in the wagon. I was glad Pa took his fiddle, for it makes a joysome sound. Mary was afraid to go, but I knew nothing bad could happen as long as we had Pa and Jack. Jack is my best and truest friend and Pa says there has never been a better watchdog. I knew there would be rivers to cross and hills to climb, and I was glad, for this is a fair land and I rejoiced that I would see it.

Watching a "little house on the prairie" and I forgot how much I love this!

[einsteinsugly]

Me with every sweet, nerdy character, and every "not like other girls" character. Snark preferred, but not required. Hell, any snarky character will do.

do you ever become obsessed with a character and you just go "of fucking course its that one" at yourself because you are so incredibly predictable
