In Tanner's Computer Tech class they played the "Stock Market Game." He and two other boys picked stocks they thought would go up a lot in one semester and then watched and waited. Out of 274 teams, they came in first place. This meant that Tanner and his parents got to eat a fancy lunch at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building in Salt Lake...and miss school. Tanner doesn't show a lot of enthusiasm at this age so it was great to see him so excited. The boys had to get up and give a little speech and then get their picture taken with their school trophy. It was a really nice day.
Then we rushed back to be home by 3:00 for Tanner and Jon to go on a Scout camp out. They traveled 5 hours to Escalante (which to me is too far) and hiked Death Hollow. The name was appropriate since it was Friday the 13th. Tanner said it was fun in the Hollow because they could play in the water, eat, and relax a bit. Jon said it was the hardest hike he'd ever been on but loved being with Tanner. I'm pretty sure Tanner is standing on a rock or something, I don't think he's that much taller than Jon.
