downtown art district,
coffee shops 
school where I work
community center
post office

junk stores
Sedona
the lakes
the desert
the canyons
the mountains
my community.

  5. What a great perspective on this challenge! Maps are so cool and you having incorporated what’s important to you make it have so much more meaning. This is such a great idea. I also love that you have labels and the compass adds just the right touch. Very nice.
