As I worked on this map a snowstorm in Chicago was headed our way. The Art Director told me to get my shovel ready.
I fantasized about all the things I would accomplish over the holiday break, but instead did mostly nothing. If you call relaxing nothing, that is. It turned out to be just what I needed. Happy New Year, everyone!

I can't wait to see what you're up to here, Jen! My daughter's out there in Chi-town...and boy do I miss her! I'll be driving out there with her in August. Love Chicago! She lives in Hyde Park...right around the corner from the Obama's old home.
I love these maps. . .are you traveling or showing us projects?
Thanks, ladies! Sherry-- these maps are all projects. Not quite in the client's budgets to send me to all these places, though I'd love to go, haha! ;-)
