I'm so old I Remember when:

[RoyalChick]

I remember how to read maps. And use a compass!

I miss maps.
Remember how everyone thought they were the expert in refolding them correctly once you arrived?

 

[Sally PB]

We learned how to topographically read maps in school.

That is cool! Hubby taught me that when we went hiking in Potter County, PA.

 

[Hayden Goseek]

I adore the old USGS topo maps. I still have rolls of them.

I bet they don't teach reading a map or using a compass in school anymore, either. Do they in teach it in Boy/Girl Scouts?

My son learned how to read a map in school. 5th grade I believe

Called Butch hair wax if I recall.

I worked for an archaeological firm in NM, editing reports, that's where/ when I learned to read topos.

No, I was a lousy liar. Think Joe Isuzu. I gave it up early, lol.

I was a terrible truth-teller! I would start laughing and acting guilty (not on purpose!) whenever I was asked the truth!
