Explore Class -- Map

Well, here I am again--two postings in one day. It's sort of catch-up time since I had to wait for my postcard to return from mailing it yesterday.

Now I am posting about the map project. This was interesting for me because I am devoting this Explore class to my hometown. We've lived in this town since 1976 and will soon be leaving it for another state. In one way I am sad but then again I am happy to be starting a new chapter in our lives. That chapter is retirement! We're moving to a place that has a more temperate climate. Pennsylvania winters can be so harsh and my old bones really need warmth.

So here is my map project. I used a journaling template by Ali Edwards and replaced the words on it to read just Traveling.

How exciting for you, and what a great way to use this class to document your hometown and move.

Great idea to document where you lived for so long. I moved all over when I was growing up... would love to document the journey...thanks for the idea.
see you in class,

What a lovely page. Wish you all the best with your big move - a lot bigger than it looks on the map! Hope you find kindred spirits to scrap with in your new retired life.
