Handy Map Reveal

Earlier in the month I mentioned that I had recently got my hands on an old map of Nashville from the early 80’s.  It was in great condition and has really cool graphics and fonts in it.  My dad has been hanging on to it for quite some time, just in case his trusty memory might fail him, which is silly because he knows his way around Nashville better than anyone I know.  So when my mom secretly sent the retired map my way, I thought what better way to use it then recycle the paper and turn it into a gift for my dad.

So for Christmas (yes I realize it’s already March) I gave my Dad a frame with 4 ‘maps’.  Each map has a significant location in Nashville that it sentimental to my dad. 

 

After:

These maps show the street that my dad grew up on.  It is his childhood home where my grandmother still lives.  Another map shows the area where he went to high school and the third pic is of where he went to college.

And the fourth map is the street were my parent’s bought their first house after they got married.  They brought both my sister and I home from the hospital to this house.

 My father is a man of MANY words, but this gift left him speechless. :)
