How I'm spending my time on hold

What might otherwise seem to be wasted time as I sit here on the phone hoping to talk to someone at a doctor's office or insurance plan is instead spent reminding myself just how much my geographical knowledge could be improved. I have probably linked to The Degree Confluence Project before, but it's been a while. What is this Confluence Project? "The goal of the project is to visit each of the latitude and longitude integer degree intersections in the world, and to take pictures at each location. The pictures, and stories about the visits, will then be posted here."

I'm having fun starting with a point fairly close to home and then moving east or west, north or south, to see what else is on the same line. Much more entertaining and educational than playing my ten zillionth game of solitaire.
