Department Convention

For the last year my Mom has served as Wyoming's Department President for the American Legion Auxiliary. She spent the year travelling around the state and visiting units in towns of all sizes and in all corners of the great state of Wyoming. The year culminates in a state-wide convention where Auxiliary members traverse to one location for days of meetings. I was unable to make it to my Mom's installation into her office last year, so I trekked the 1000 miles to be there for her convention this year. It was so great to see her and several of the members that attend that I have known for years, but haven't seen in 5 years.

At the end!

Her theme was ducks...they were all over the place!

Because of different circumstances the person who would have proceeded up into the President position was unable to do so, so Mom is serving another year. Who would have known when I couldn't make it to her installation last year that I would be able to see it happen again this year? Congrats Mom!
