We're military about to retire in Central Texas, but we're going home in a few weeks to see my family in Center Ossipee! For my birthday a couple of weeks ago my husband framed a relief map of that very area of New Hampshire. I love being able to trace my finger along the mountain top where my grandfather lives and the valleys where all my aunts, uncles and cousins are. I love it!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16206417069234395837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4762074643019339347.post-9844406079604045622012-01-25T11:51:14.593-05:002012-01-25T11:51:14.593-05:00I did the same thing with regular paint and a smal...I did the same thing with regular paint and a small roller.
