Day two of the conference was spent at the Rural Life Museum on the campus of Louisiana State University. Educational sessions were held, as were Professional Interest Group (PIG) meetings, and regional meetings. The day was capped off by the annual auction where funds were raised to support the organization and an overall good time was had by all. There was a certain smoking jacket wearing, earstand performing auctioneer who we kept with us in spirit. Enjoy the photos!

I won this beautiful posset pot made by Mike Fox of Old Salem. I'd provide a link to information about posset pots but I'm on a bus on the way to our day in New Orleans so you'll have to do your own research.
