Today I’m giving away a laminated map with dry erase marker.  I love maps.  Anyone who has worked with me knows I have had a map in my office, where ever that was, for the last 20 years.  I have a big old classroom map of Canada at the cottage that predates Thunder Bay – it still has Port Arthur and Fort William.  I bought this map because I loved the idea of writing all over it and then wiping it off, but I never used it.  In keeping with my birthday theme this year (giving something I made, something from my house, and/or an experience) I gave it to my nephew for his 10th birthday.  We celebrated it on Saturday night.  He also got a subscription to National Geographic and something I made.  I’m not always this educational, he got a Hobbit Lego set for Christmas.  He seemed pretty happy about it all.

I hope that he and his sister will be inspired to travel the world…

when they’re old enough.

I'm trying to make more space in my life so I'm getting rid of stuff. All the things that I've been hanging on to that might have some utility for someone else, if no longer for me. I'm going to try to give something away every day.
