I was able to join Corey in Pierre as he was sworn in for his third term in the State Senate. Even better was being there to listen to his friend and colleague, Russell Olson, give a very flattering speech to nominate Corey as President Pro Tempore and watch the entire Senate vote to elect him to the position. (The part I could have done without was where they called Corey AND ME (gasp) up to the front of the Senate for Corey to accept the position and take the oath.) We are still waiting on copies of pictures from others who were there, but have one grainy one of him being sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Steven Zinter. Quite an unforgettable day!
