"Oh! Look how cute you all are! Where is this? Santa Cruz?"
"Yeah. We were walking down to the beach."
"You have such a beautiful smile. I wish you'd stand up straight though."
"Mom. Stop it. Didn't you notice the tree?"
"What? Oh! Why is that there?"
"Somebody just did it. Isn't it cool? It's called 'urban knitting'. Here, look at these..."
"Wow. That's, um, very interesting. They do that without permission? Like tagging? I guess it's better than spray-painted graffitti. Will it hurt the trees?"
"Oh my god, Mom. No, I don't think so. It's just supposed to be pretty."
"Well, it is that. Where did you find these?"
"Can I blog this? Can I use your picture?"
"Sure."
