I never had geography in school, except we had to memorize the counties of the state I grew up in. That was easy because there were only a few. Less than 20. I don't know if I could name them all now.
I have been keeping a map with all my work buddies on it, which has been really fun. It's right there on my office (aka "the cave") wall, so I can see my friends/co-workers smiling faces on there while I email back and forth. I know there are several bloggers that have blog maps and that is cool too. Wow, imagine that. Learning Geography at 40 something!
Another really neat thing is my site meter. I can get a map of where all my blog viewers are. So cool. I had one from Japan today. It really is quite neat, because even if you don't comment, I can see where you are. My own personal "big-brother." Well, don't let that scare you, ok? I just think it is really a good tool, and it kind of helps me stay connected, ya know? I think it is fun that someone way over in NY state has stopped by my blog for a quick (hopefully fun or informative) read. Even if you don't say "Hi" it is nice to know you dropped by.
And did you know there was even a place called Oregon, Wisconsin? That is great. I might have to post some of the other places here.....and boy am I going to be SO well versed in Geography. Maybe, just maybe I will know more than my kids for a change!
