#GeographyAwarenessWeek closed in an amazing, humbling way. I was deeply honoured today to receive the Stuart Semple Award for contributions to geographic education presented by Atlantic Division Canadian Association of Geographers. Stuart was my advisor, mentor and best educator anywhere #geography

You're here! Whew, when I left the dark side I thought I'd never see you again.... and you know me, that image is a joy to showcase during #GeographyAwarenessWeek Geographer's love museums.

One of my favs for #GISDay and #GeographyAwarenessWeek Gov. Tim Walz (should have been VP) about how he used #geographya and #GIS to make a difference in the lives of Minnesotans (hey he was a geography teacher, what did you expect)

Fredrick Douglas Academy Seniors talking to teachers from different schools about their GIS program as part of a place based climate resilience PD session. Impressive!

#geographyawarenessweek #geography Ok, before I go on about some of the more "professional connections" of Geography and Nova Scotia to the world, I need to digress with one hell of a story with AGB and me, via WW2. I bet you are gonna shake your head.

So, in my #geographyawarenessweek thread, I mentioned a connection to the attacks on the US on September 11, 2001. Two people I got to know while preparing and hosting the NCGE conference in Halifax, in 1995, were Ann Judge and Joe Ferguson.

Once again, it’s Geography Awareness Week, and geographers and geography educators (even Gov. Tim Walz) take time to recognize the contributions of the discipline to individuals and society. #geographyAwarenessWeek #geography #gis #cartography #remotesensing

I'll try to tell a story bit by. Where I live is closely connected with what I have done/do. If it weren't for Alexander Graham Bell, I might not being doing what I am today. That's the cool things about threads and stories connecting us. It's "place" (Yi-Fu Tuan) #geographyAwarenessWeek #geography
