While at the national conference Alice, Cherry and I went on a tour of the smokey mountains. Guess what our bus got stuck in the mud and we watched in get unstuck for about an hour and a half......here is a photo of the exciting moment. Ha Ha..

National Conference in Knoxville, TN

The national conference was great fun and a great time for learning and celebrating. This year was very special because of the 100 year celebration. There was a wonderful slide presentation along with a laiser light show.

It was great seeing our own Jean Knack as national treasurer and Kathy Norquist as Chair of the Development committee.

I was honored to represent Minnesota as our teacher of the year and enjoyed my presentations and the lovely teacher of the year luncheon.
