Flex Nov 1st the one after halloween

Hopefully you don't have too many Halloween regrets today -- somehow this strange Autumn ritual has morphed into a commercial spectacle and plastic-wrapped sugar-fest. Too much treat, not enough trick if you ask me. My only regret is that I didn't take a picture of the zombies down the street. One industrious parent convinced her teenage kids to produce very sophisticated undead get-ups and mill about the street to frighten the trick-or-treaters. My children (age 6 and 9) were thrilled!

Today, we have Seminar backed with Flex. For Seminar, be prepared to share the literary reference you found that relates to Rivers or Caves.  For Flex choose between past or future. Past: complete any of the portfolio items that are expected by now (mass wastage case study, Lheidl T'enneh research inquiry, reading journals). Future: take a good long look through the GeoNarratives handout I gave you in class a week or so ago (you can also see it here)-- start making notes as to how you see yourself doing this project and what kinds of questions you need to ask in order to get going.  Or, you can simply be "Present" in your reading -- read for an hour before or after Seminar.
