I love that you guys did this and it just goes to show that my theory about lifelong learning being not only possible but enhanced as we get older is right. I swear I've learned more in the last ten years by simply being curious and tagging along with my kids than I ever paid for in college.kariohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10150537989886423212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-66639060970851154242014-03-12T08:45:49.011-07:002014-03-12T08:45:49.011-07:00Well, even if it backfired, your attempt to be wel...Well, even if it backfired, your attempt to be well-rounded in 1985 was admirable. I tried to be well-rounded too but I don't think I ever went quite THAT far. I'm glad the modern field trip turned out to be worthwhile -- I thought you were going to tell us it was terrible!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-10939255772414637772014-03-12T04:22:45.316-07:002014-03-12T04:22:45.316-07:00Your decision for Oliver's education does seem...Your decision for Oliver's education does seem to be constantly proven to be the right one!

It reminded me of a course in "Consumer and Environmental Chemistry" - a.k.a. science for artistic types - which I took. We also went to a wastewater-treatment plant - this one in the Midwest. The most memorable part of that fieldtrip for me was hearing one of the staff say, "You know how it is when you flush a toilet - the water (etc.) just goes 'away?' Well, that's where you are right today - we're going to show you 'away' today." Very funny at the time!<br />Your son is one lucky dude.
