One of my favorite activities and side-benefits on Twelve Mile Circle involves thoughtful correspondence. That happens when readers contact me offline, directly through the email link. We have opportunities to share experiences, discuss geo-oddities in a little more detail and develop story lines that sometimes result in full-blown articles. Casual readers may not realize the amount of activity taking place behind the curtain. Generally I’m conducting several slow-motion conversations out-of-sight at any given moment. Over time this benefits topic variety and the overall quality of the blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m a little behind due to my recent vacation so fear not if we’ve corresponded recently. I’ll catch up eventually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Case in point, reader Brent and I had dueling meridian experiences in near-real-time as I traveled through Utah recently. I recorded my first visit to the Great Salt Lake Meridian and Base<\/a>. On the same day he stopped at the Principal Meridian for Canada’s Dominion Land Survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
