BYU Education Week Day Four
This is the tree of knowledge that I lay under today.

I didn't know it was a tree of knowledge when I chose it, but it turned out to be a pretty smart tree to lay under. I learned you can probably learn as much laying under a tree for an hour as you can sitting in class for an hour, especially if the class turns out to be taught by a skinny old bald guy who sounds exactly like Will Ferrell. Will Ferrell just doesn't have any credibility when it comes to discussing religion.
And then I saw this little lady
She was hunched over,
carrying her orange,
wearing tennis shoes
and carrying a backpack full of books.
That's the kind of lifetime learner I want to be
I asked her if I could take her picture
because I thought she embodied the
spirit of BYU Education Week
She said "okay" but when I asked her to turn her head
she said, "Huh! Hollywood."
I said "thank you"
I bet she found a tree to sit under and ate her orange.

I've never found a smart tree, but I did sit beside a very street smart dumpster once.
Too funny. Thanks for the early morning laugh.
That's Me!! If I'd known you were going to shoot pictures, I'd have dressed up gooder. :)
I love you Larainy! Your blog makes me smile and laugh! I love you madly :)
She is too cute. I hope I can be just like her one day. (It may be sooner than later, the way I feel lately!)
=)
Go granny go! I used to walk miles to home after school, can you imagine kids doing that today?
At 89 a friend of mine got her ninth master. I agree, life long learners are the best.
You're nicer than me - I wouldn't have asked. I'd have just snapped away. Huh - Hollywood... WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!?
Are you sure that backpack was loaded with books.. she looks a little suspicious to me. It is hard to beat Utah in the summer... how fun you could go with Grandma.
