Why I've Blogged Since 2005

I started the Tutor/Mentor blog in April 2005, almost 20 years ago.  This Mapping blog was started in 2008 and I've been posting articles on it since 2011.

In late February a few of my #clmooc friends created posts showing why they blog and invited me to add my own history.  I invite you to read posts by Kevin, Sarah and Sheri to see where I'm getting my inspiration.

I created this image, showing me in 1997 with former Chicago Mayor Richard Daley, for my "Reflections on Why I Blog" articles. You can find the first one here.   I hope you'll take a look.
