As I go into my last blog posts of this class I want to take some time to share a place that was such an important part of my life and what steered me into going back to school. Those of you who know me can't help but know that I worked at The Land greenhouses at Epcot. A tradition at the end of the internship is to tie your ugly white tennis shoes together and throw them up into a tree outside of the break room. Well one of our leaders hated the tradition and all but told us not to continue the tradition. Well I am not one for taking subtle hints and was gonna add my shoes to the tree come hell or high water. I decided to write a message on the bottom of my shoes and It simply told him not to worry when they were ripe, they would fall. And they did...during a hurricane. Most of the shoes blew away, but wouldn't you know, my pair and the message attached didn't blow away like many of the shoes and he got my message and has decided to allow the tradition to continue. The message I wrote was inspired by the phrase I titled my blog off of, which I described in my very first post.
But I wanted to provide a little information to you about The Land and how great the experience of working there was and in the even that anyone stumbles upon this blog post they can know how wonderful the Land was as well.
