Maps Galore

When I first started this blog, I decided to create a map of the road trip in Google Maps.  Some of you may have followed the map by clicking on The Route in the tab section above the posts.

Although I have had considerable technical difficulties with producing the maps (my limited skills coupled with glitches on the part of Google Maps), I am happy to report that the map is now up-to-date.  

If you are so inclined, you can now see the route we have taken since leaving Estes Park. The Route has screen shots of the individual maps that comprise our journey.  However, if you click on the link to my Google Maps site, you will find an interactive map.  Here, you can click on any placemark on the map and bring up a link to the blog posts for that particular location. (You can always find this link to my Google Maps site on the right column of the blog under Where Are We?)

Let me know if you encounter any problems or if you have any suggestions for making the map easier to read.

  1. It's working pretty well as far as I can tell Sarah. Cool feature! Putting that together must have kept you busy on a cold winter's night. :-) Hope you all are staying warm. LV

    1. LV, I'm glad it seems to be working. Yes, woring on the map has kept me busy on quite a few cold nights! It's been fun though, and I feel like I've mastered new technology. Sarah

    1. Jane, Now why didn't I think of that! Maybe you can figure out how to piece all the maps together into a single map. Sarah
