On Friday evening Linda gave the keynote address at the Prairie Star District Annual conference, this year in Duluth, MN.
The conference theme was “Our Blue Boat Home” and Linda’s talk was accompanied by photos from around the farm and Midwest. The talk was well received and Linda got a standing ovation from the 320 or so in attendance. A rebroadcast of the speech (1 hour and 15 minutes) is available online (go to the conference page and click the video box below the talk description – Linda is first introduced by Rev Brian Eslinger in the video.
To loosen up our speaker, we went down to the lake before the talk to “center” the speaker.
