(no subject)
I was thinking the other day about planning my visit - there’s all this bad chat going around about how ignorant Americans are regarding the world at large, geography and culture and language and so on. It strikes me that I am woefully ignorant of American EVERYTHING. I mean, apart from all the basic history stuff. I don’t know much about what states are like what, or even where things are in relation to one another - trying to plan a trip is silly when you don’t know what’s next to what. SO my plan is to buy some maps and a cork board later today and start doing pins. I will need a BIG corkboard or map… or maybe I can make one out of cardboard and cloth. I liked the way my rooms in Cam were equipped with big boards.
