This city has a great vibe, people are happy and friendly and this made me feel like I'm at home almost right away when I came here.That was the main thing I wanted to show on my map :)

An homage to my hometown... which I have come to appreciate now that I've moved away.

When shopping for glasses recently, I started by looking at shops that carry something special.

Some of my favorite places and things in Boston!

Estes Park is the quaint town at the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. It is packed full of fun touristy things to do in town, but my favorite is to take a scenic drive in the surrounding area. Hop on HWY 34 from Loveland - take the Glen Haven turn off - get a fantastic view of Estes valley - bypass downtown and head straight up through the National Park to take in the natural beauty of the mountains - on the way back home stop in downtown to buy a malt or coffee. Remember to bring your camera and binoculars!

From my New York City Ramblings sketchbook, four seasons at Central Park, over 800 acres of rural landscape in the middle of Manhattan.

Fortunately, I have the luxury of having relocated to a vacationer's paradise and am awed by its beauty on a daily basis. I hope others can appreciate the treasures in store here once they visit as well.

Originally a gold mining town, folks now rush to Julian in the fall for fresh apples (and pie), and for a taste of the Old West all year round. I discover new treasures there every time I visit.

This is a map of "The Avenue" (W. 36th St.) The Avenue is a staple of Baltimore culture. It has plenty of shops, diners, and vintage charm. I especially like the south side of the street and this map shows a few reasons why!

This map is partly personal, partly all the things you might not find on a tourist map, but that are must-sees when visiting Savannah, Georgia!

As an assemblage artist I have a blast looking for found objects, inspiration & eating good food in Santa Fe, N.M. I bet there are others who would love spending 3-5 days doing the same.
