Fourth in The Good neighbors Series, Measuring Up follows characters from the first three books to Wyoming. In 1934 at the height of the Depression, New York Times reporter, David Epstein, brings his wife, Rebecca, and their two pre-teen children, Deborah and Daniel, to the Dacia’s (Romanian immigrants) farm in South Dakota. From there they will travel with the Dacias, and neighbor, Fritz Wagner, to the Black Hills of South Dakota and on to Wyoming for Fritz’s wedding to Flora Doyle of the Lucky D Ranch.Concerns about New Yorkers fitting in with cowboys are overshadowed by the forces of nature when both a flash flood and a fire impact the visitors. A two day ranch rodeo, a death, the wedding, and the Fourth of July make an action-packed week with even Will Rogers and Wylie Post dropping in.But Wyoming isn’t the only place with things astir. Back in Centerford, South Dakota, Fritz’s brother, singing star August Wagner, is caught in a con which risks the loss of a special member of the family, his wife, Marie’s Appaloosa horse, Sky, as well as his paycheck and savings.Everyone faces a challenge, whether from New York, South Dakota, or Wyoming. And everyone will find out if they can measure up.
