I should say that I am also particularly interested in recruiting a student with experience and interest in critical/community-based GIS to help me get a community mapping lab up and running here in Atlanta!

If you know someone who might be interested, have them get in touch!

Made a UW-Madison Archives request for the holy grail of Muskegon River 1857 engineering plans just before Christmas break, and now I’m refreshing my email every five minutes like I’m on this job market. JUST SEND ME THE SCAN ALREADY! This is killing me.

My parents and kids and I went to a rodeo in west Michigan a few years back, and when we were leaving my Dad looked me dead in the eye and said, “You know what this means?? For the rest of our lives we get to say, ‘This ain’t my first rodeo!’” I laugh about that moment at least once a week.

We do! And I’ve been in touch, but my sense is that they’re very busy doing bigger important things! Totally lovely to deal with. Just booked.

Not sure exactly! I’ve been messing around adding points for stream crossings and water feature edges in an area I’m working in. Interested in mapping the river meanders, too. But also in ways that folks have shared PLSS data, photos, notes etc. spatially for public audiences.
