Man this family moved around a lot.

This was another enjoyable mostly-lighthearted tale about the Ingalls family moving yet again. This time Pa got a job doing payroll for some railroad workers with the intention of claiming a homestead once the work was done.

I still enjoy Pa's optimism in these stories, and the fact that he can build a shanty in less than a day.
