By some awesome chance of origami fate, I was able to fold the Epcot crane so that you can actually see the Epcot sphere. I was pretty amazed myself as I certainly couldn't have planned it better myself. On a separate note, it was nice to be able to place a crane and send my bill payments out. Does anyone else's mail delivery person come ridiculously early? Most days the mailman comes before 9 in the morning. That does not bode well when I have a day off and want to sleep in a little bit still get my bills paid. (Note: No bills were late at the time of this crane placement.)

Upon coming home from Disney, I decided to re-use the maps we printed up to make a few cranes out of them. Fitting that the first map is actually of the Magic Kingdom. However, I've not exactly masted the art of folding so as to make important bits visible. So other than Main Street USA, I don't think there was any other identifying characteristics. Oops! Well, I've still got a few more cranes to fold before I make it to my goal of 1000. (In this case, a few is slightly less than 700.)

After my first visit to Eastern Library, I think I'll be coming more often. This has to be the most modern looking library in my county. And I've seem a fair number of the libraries. I left this crane by the bust of Edgar Allan Poe.

The paper of this crane and the next one are compliment of Nikki Sivils and Lanie of Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker. She sent me a few different things but the 6x6 book turned out to be the perfect size for crane folding. I'm going to intersperse the rest of the sheets among my other cranes. Thanks for the paper for my cranes ladies!
