This blog will be a source of communication and instruction for my students while I am away on my fellowship in Nova Scotia. Daily discoveries will be posted and you are expected to post comments or questions in response to my post or someone else's post. You are required to respond to each post that I make. In other words, your grade depends on what and how often you post comments. Comments or questions must show that you have put some thought into it (comments like "cool" do not count).

North America Map

I have updated the map that shows where Nova Scotia is. It gives you a little perspective to the distance. I am two hours ahead of you. That means that when it is 3:30pm in Houston, it will be 5:30pm in Nova Scotia.

Here is a Google map. You can use the tool bars to make it bigger or smaller. I have added a few placemarks to show you places I've been or where I am.

While you're looking at the map, you may choose to select “View in Google Earth”. Clicking this will launch GEarth (I'm not sure if it is installed) which will allow you to fly over terrain and see my Placemarks.

Have a great trip. I look forward to reading your blog entries once you make it to Nova Scotia. What will the weather be like while you are there?

Thanks!
The weather will be awesome! The humidity will be familiar--55% or so. The forecast shows some rain.
The temps will be fantastic--highs in the mid 40s and lows in the 30s.
I welcome a change from heat!
