I am a volunteer mapper usually based in New York, mainly Brooklyn and the Catskills. I like open data and long walks on the beach.
O highway I travel, do you say to me Do not leave me?
Do you say Venture not⸺if you leave me you are lost?
Do you say I am already prepared, I am well-beaten and undenied, adhere to me?
O public road, I say back I am not afraid to leave you, yet I love you,
You express me better than I can express myself,
You shall be more to me than my poem.
Walt Whitman
