David: The Mapman with the Golden Mustache

Well, I've spent a long time rebuilding the website and still need to toss the ol' links section, search function, and other fun stuff back up so I'm going to make this short, but I thought I would give an update on what I'm working on. Miss Creel's house is coming along nicely and I'm almost done with a first set of c.d.'s but for Wednesday through Saturday this week we are doing arcGIS training which is a data mapping software. Since the storm, the GCCDS has been collecting and mapping data and for the latest land use survey which has been ongoing for the past half-year or so we are going to be making more sophisticated and detailed maps using this program. Our instructor David, has generously offered to teach this seminar free of charge and has come all the way from Texas to do it. I'll have to let you know how it goes, but needless to say, I'm excited to see the possibilities!
