About This Item

My Geek Odyssey

In 2009 I was awarded a Teacher Creativity Fellowship from the Lilly Endowment to travel to England and learn about the Mini Cooper. As a part of this I also created a webcomic (www.mygeekodyssey.com) and examined other geeky things that I like. This coin holds the pathtag that I made for the fellowship and the webcomic. The comic can be found at (visit link) photos of the journey can be seen at (visit link)

Well... the school year has started and that officially draws my Fellowship to a close. Almost 19,000 miles in one summer- probably over 19,000 miles but that's just my bad book keeping. From one side of the Earth to the other and what did I really discover as I "searched for my inner geek"? Something I kind of knew all along- we are all geeks in our own way some more than others. It is the geek part that makes you unique, makes you stand out, makes you special. Without it we would all be the same and the world would be a much more boring place. This last event of the summer with 58 geocaching geeks was a great end to a summer that I will never forget. Does this coin go away? No, but it will only be brought out for special occasions a few times a year. It has earned a little rest... then again Moonshine is just a few weeks away- ook!
