I haven't heard of this one either. Did you check the PBS website to see if it has any information? I'll head over there and see if I find anything.

It's on PBS. After I posted, it occurred to me to do a search on Google. From what I found, I think it was on a couple of years ago, and this is a repeat. Here in Oregon the show is on Saturdays, at 7 p.m, with a repeat on Thursdays at 10 p.m., but at www.pbs.org they have this thing where you can key in your zip code and it gives the schedule in your area.
From what I can tell there are at least 4 more episodes (though with them there for a whole year, I'd think it would be more than that, but who knows.)
I definitely plan to keep watching! I think the new couple will work hard. The young guy who's already there was skeptical because the woman brought doilies for her home. But even in the real pioneer days women brought at least something that was mainly decorative, probably to boost their spirits.
Speaking of decorative items, was the china lady in the LHOP stories ever documented as real, or was it just something for the books?
