landscaping maps

Hand-drawn maps. Boom.

Hat tip to my cousin Tamara who helped me ID a few of these. When I moved into the house, the previous owners had left me a labeled map of most of the plants in the backyard ... but not the side or the front. So it's been a long overdue (and time-intensive) project for me to track down and map out everything in the yard. Check! Off the list.
