var sc_project=6637553; var sc_invisible=1; var sc_security="6e2355dc"; Tumblr (3.0; @cartographymaps)http://cartographymaps.tumblr.com/<p>That I probably will only update this blog on rare occasions. It&#8217;s been a fun project, and though I still love maps, I&#8217;m always exploring new things, as well. Lately, it&#8217;s been picture books that teeter on the line between being made for children and being made for adults, and that are always works of art. I&#8217;ve made a blog for that <a href="http://beautifulpicturebooks.tumblr.com">here</a>, and these blogs are always an extension of my main Tumblr <a href="http://susannacole.tumblr.com">here</a>, which is the only one consistently kept up throughout the years. Of course, that blog is really a supplement to my <a href="http://girlmeetsnyc.blogspot.com">original blog</a>, and frankly, I&#8217;m always sprouting new branches and veins of interest and passion. I hope you&#8217;ll forgive my idiosyncrasies. </p> <p>Who knows, someday the map blogging bug may bite once again, and I&#8217;ll be back in full force, but I wouldn&#8217;t make any promises. Thanks to all the faithful followers for your support, it&#8217;s been, and is, much appreciated. </p>http://cartographymaps.tumblr.com/post/48859934062http://cartographymaps.tumblr.com/post/48859934062Thu, 25 Apr 2013 12:32:21 -0400<img
