eastbound map

I was inspired by this map on flickr (click to see)
to do this

day one page

I've got the whole east bound portion of the trip in the book -- very easy to lay out eastbound travel -- route reads left to right. Not sure how to deal with the westbound leg... put maps upside down?

Here is the left side of the Day 1 spread all ready to go.

road trip journal prep

I started preparing a book to use on my October road trip

first I'm gluing AAA maps of the route into an 8 x 11" blank book
next, I'm painting the non-route portions of the map with gesso

there are portions of the trip I haven't yet figured out so it's a work in progress...
