1. Where was the log cabin that Laura and Mary lived in?

Explanation

Laura and Mary lived in a log cabin, which suggests that they resided in a wooded area. Wisconsin is known for its dense forests, making it a plausible location for their log cabin. On the other hand, Arizona is primarily a desert region, making it an unlikely location for a log cabin. Lake Michigan, while a beautiful location, does not provide any indication of a log cabin. Therefore, the most logical answer is that Laura and Mary lived in the woods of Wisconsin.
