My Heart Swells with State Pride

A recent tradition at the White House is to display Easter eggs submitted from each state. Each egg is a painstaking rendering of the artist’s pride in their beloved state. This year the egg submitted from my home state of Wyoming stood out among the other eggs.

Below are some examples; see for yourself.

Alaska's Egg

Wisconsin's Egg

`

Iowa's Egg

`

Nevada's Egg

`

And, as promised, the intricate masterpiece that is the official egg representing the beautiful state and wonderful people of Wyoming:

`


Wyoming's Egg !!!

I say this without an ounce of sarcasm. I really, really miss my goofy home in Wyoming.

The egg caused a bit of disappointment in the state.

No, I love that egg! Some kid probably (well, actually, GOD I HOPE SO!) won a contest and is really really proud his/her egg is at the White House.

That story brings tears to my eyes. My own, made-up-story, is bringing tears to my eyes.

I'm basically a full house party of one.
