Life is short and the small ideas we have are most often forgotten as time moves forward. We attempt to reflect on the particulars that make us who we are, yet, we are pulled in different directions by our obligations of life. AN EXPEDITION is a series of essays written by Cameron Douglas Craig that takes us on a journey of his life experiences. The essays cover a range of topics that many find extremely descriptive and thought provoking. AN EXPEDITION is presented so that readers will grasp their own experiences in life in the hope that they discover their own expedition. CAMERON DOUGLAS CRAIG, a native of Noblesville, Indiana, is a geographer, documentarian, and musician. He is a teacher of geography and meteorology at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois. First beginning university as a vocal performance major, Craig shifted his studies and received degrees in History and Geography in the hopes that he would understand the complex interactions between humanity and the physical environment we call Earth. It is a lesson he continues to observe and pass on to his students.
