Design Update - Turns Out, It DID Matter!

My previous post was about my mother's hurricane maps, her love of hurricane season, and her respect for the force of Mother Nature. I also created a collage, of sorts, using her hurricane tracking maps and a few photos from the 2004 and 2005 hurricane season.

I mentioned that it was a little primitive looking, and I also said that I didn't care.
Turns out, I did.
A lot!

The collage looked like a child had created it, and I'm sure that if I had made it back in 1960, Mom would have loved it. But it's 2015, and I really didn't like it once the sun broke the next morning. Besides, the frame was so huge that I would have had to move Mom's barometer over to either the right or the left about 8-inches in order to make room for both on the same wall.

After another trip to AC Moore, I framed each of the maps individually, with no photos - nice and clean. I didn't cut the maps, just folded them so the main part of the maps are showing.

I really like this. It's a keeper. Sometimes we just have to find our way, right?

There is a storm out there in the Atlantic that we're keeping an eye on. Needless to say, Mom would be on needles and pins, but we're still making plans to go camping this weekend.
Like Scarlett said, "After all, tomorrow is another day."
We can prepare Monday, if need be.

Sharpen your pencil, Mom. There're tracks to mark.
